A hot, comforting meal for a cold, rainy day, shepherd’s pie only has two constants: a meaty center and a mashed potato crust. In our simple take on the Irish staple, everything goes in the pressure cooker at once—everything! Then you remove the potatoes, mash ’em up, and brown the top of the pie for a crisp, cheesy crust. You heard correctly. This is our attempt at making a fast and easy shepherd’s pie with little hassle and big flavor. Let us know if it hits the spot. And don’t be mad at the seasoning packet! Grant is rediscovering his love for them.
