Shepards Pie

Well here it is I am finally putting it down on paper :D The recipe that I get asked about anytime that someone tries it. This is a recipe I learned from my mom and my kids will probably learn from me. And now everyone that shows up when they know I am making this can make it themselves :P
Ingredients
1 lb of ground beef
1 pkg frozen corn ( or fresh cut of the cob )
1-2 C. Cheese any kind of cheddar or mixed cheese will work
1 beef bouillon cube
3/4-1 c water
1/2 onion diced
3 cloves garlic minced or pressed
2-4T. flour
7-8 potatoes peeled and cubed
2 T butter
1/2 c. half and half
1/4 t salt
1/8 t pepper


Directions:
Cook potatoes in boiling water till soft. Beat them with butter, half and half, salt and pepper. Until light and fluffy. In a frying pan brown hamburger with onion and garlic until there is no pink left. While this is cooking combine water, bouillon and flour in a small bowl. When hanmburger is browned add water, flour and bouillon mixture let thicken. While this is thickening microwave your corn. When corn is warm start assembling you pie.In a casserole dish put a thin layer of meat followed by a layer of potatoes, meat, corn, meat, corn, potatoes and then top with cheese and place in oven for 40 minutes. 15 minutes before it is done take a butter knife and stab the middle a couple times. When it is done it will be bubbly and brown.

Difficulty- Alittle harder and takes some prep. It is nothing an intermediate cook couldnt handle with ease.
Look- Looks like comfort food

Review- This recipe is one that will be used again and again. The ingredients are cheap and usually standbys in any household. This is a recession proof dish and feeds alot of mouths for cheap but not leaving them unsatisfied. This would be a good dish to eat before hunting or building snow forts with the kids. Warms you from the inside out.

Like I said this is an original recipe one that until now was only in my family. We like it and hope that you do too :D Let me know if you try it and what you think.
