    This recipe was good, but I found the instructions for the recipe hard to follow. The meat mixture was a little too saucy for my liking. With the flour mixture (although it doesn't specify, you should work the liquid in slowly. I added the liquid all at once and the paste turned out lumpy. This recipe was still good.

    This recipe for Shepherd's Pie is novel in that the peas, corn & carrot make it colourful and appetising. Looking forward to making it over the weekend..
