I'm sure this would have been good with out any changes but I made a few and it was really YUMMY!!! After looking at some of the other reviews I agree it needed more substance so I added 2 cloves of garlic and 3/4 can of green beans and corn with the mushrooms, doubled the mushrooms and tomato paste, added 2 extra T of Worcestershire and included 1/4 tsp of thyme. I also used "Better than Bouillon" Au Jus base instead of the beef stock which gave it a very rich meaty flavor. Lastly, I always use cream cheese instead of milk or cream in my mashed taters which was REALLY yummy with the gravy in this dish. My picky eaters even enjoyed this!!

This was the first shepherd's pie i've ever made and I loved it! I did half beef and half lamb. And I used both peas and corn at the end. Soooo good!

Awesome shepherd's pie. Everything I've made of Emeril's has been outstanding (unlike most of the other Chef's stuff here.

This is a recipe I have been making for years and always come back to.
After making it so many times I've perfected it to my taste. What I do different:
Use stew meat instead of lamb
add a couple cloves of garlic when adding in the mushrooms
use 8 0z instead of 4 oz of shrooms
add extra Worchestire sauce, I like the added flavor

Once its almost done simmering I throw in about a cup of frozen corn.
I probably also make more mashed poatoes to go on top. The ground nutmet and shredded cheddar are a must!!!! Service this with a good loaf of crusty bread and a glass of Pinot and you're good to go.

Great recipe! Emeril never disappoints.

Very good and simple! I used the bob evans pre-made mashed potatoes and they were very yummy on top instead of making my own.

I haven't made shepards pie in many years-but since I had a lot of leftover mashed potatoes, I decided it was time to make it again. I checked several recipes just to get the old brain working. For those of you who've been cooking a while-like me-and aren't married to every step of a recipe, shepards pie is ripe for adding what you have on hand. For instance, I plan to use ground beef and some leftover veggies. However, if you don't know your ingredients and spices yet- stick to the recipe-that's how you learn to cook-or at least it was how I did it. After awhile and different experiences, you'll learn to make a recipe your own. Happy cooking! Mary Ann

I used ground beef instead of lamb and mixed the grated cheese in leftover mashed potaoes for the topping. It was very good. Next time I may add a few more veggies to the meat miture. Really, really good.
