Weeble Pie

Weeble Pie

Renfro Family rendition of shepherd's pie, Weeble pie. A great all in one meal: meat, potato, and vegetable......

For Mashed Tatos:
3 large russet potatoes, peeled and chopped
4 tablespoon heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste

For Top & Middle:
1 packet frozen peas, thawed
Named after the one & only Weeble!!!
1/2 cup shredded cheese ( I use a cheddar & parmesan mix)

For Meat:
2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 large onion, diced
3-4 garlic cloves chopped
2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped in small rounds
1/2-1 lb. ground beef
1 tablespoon chopped rosemary
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup chicken or beef biullion
1-2 tablespoons flour

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add potatoes, cook until tender, about 15 minutes, drain, mash in a bowl, add heavy cream, salt and pepper, mix well, and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat up olive oil on Medium. When hot, add onions, carrots, and garlic, salt and pepper to taste, cook until onions turn clear, then add ground beef and rosemary. Cook on medium until meat browns and stick to pan bottom somewhat. Add buillion to skillet and flour. Cook down for about five minutes until about half of buillion is absorbed.

Evenly spoon meat and veggies into bottom of casserole dish with the liquid. Top with cooked peas. Spoon mashed potatoes on top of peas so as not to smash the peas. Spread an even layer over peas and meat. Top with shredded cheese.
 Place pie into preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes until cheese top is golden on top and liquid is bubbly underneath. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes. Scoop onto plates and serve with ketchup, ketchup with sriracha if you want spicy. Enjoy!!
The Finished Product...
