Shepherd's Pie in the Ninja Foodi (Cottage Pie)

This recipe for Shepherd's Pie (Cottage Pie) is one of the easiest recipes to make in the Ninja Foodi!
It's a great easy recipe for beginners and also more advanced users of the Ninja Foodi..
**Mistake in the video** The broth doesn't thicken the sauce, but it is absorbed by the flour and thereby creating a thickened sauce.
You can get the full recipe right here: thesaltedpeppe...
I included the roasted garlic recipe in the recipe post for Shepherd's Pie on The Salted Pepper Website, but you can also find it in the Spaghetti recipe: thesaltedpeppe...

[@andrewcullen8635]

@@TheSaltedPepper As yo said the main difference is if you use Ground Beef or Lamb and the Gravy. With Cottage Pie I like to add a couple Tea spoons of Marmite, Vegemite or Yeast Extract. With Shepperd's Pie I might add a bit of Mint (A traditional acompliment to Lamb).

I will certainly try this recipe. My wife has Lyme's disease and can't eat meat anymore and this would be wonderful with the turkey as a substitute. And I must disagree with your comment that this is just like a restaurant. This was way better than anything I've ever seen in a restaurant so kudos to you. Thank you

I wanted to say its sooo refreshing you do not spam endorsements in your videos and let your experienced Ninja cooking talk! You just get-r-done. I bought my very special parents a Ninja 8 qt AF/PC (Air fryer/Pressure Cooker( so they can teach myself prior to jumping in on the air fryer/pressure cooking. I travel so much i actually relish the thought of the good ole down home cooking and my parents continued cooking guidance...love my parents and this new method of cooking gave them another activity in their 80th + years.

I just found your channel yesterday. Neither my wife nor I can cook to save our lives. We have an InstantPot but are considering the Foodi as a replacement. Thank you for these informative videos, and the recipes. We’re going to pick up a Foodi this evening, and tomorrow I’m going to try this recipe.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

That's wonderful! I bet you'll be surprised to find out that you both can cook! Try not to make any adjustments in recipes until you get more familiar. All the ingredients are chosen for specific reasons, some of course are flavor enhancers, some are for liquid content and some are chosen based on cooking times. It isn't as easy as swapping one vegetable for another when pressure cooking. I have some great articles on my website if you want to take a look. Here is how to use the Ninja Foodi: thesaltedpepper.com/how-to-use-the-ninja-foodi/ Please don't hesitate to ask me questions and you can join our Facebook Group Ninja Foodi 101 if you want. Congrats on the Foodi, you are going to LOVE it!

[@tishatucker7510]

I just made this last night for the family and we all LOVED it! I did add 1/2 tsp of oregano just because I thought it sounded good but followed the rest of the recipe. The only thing my family said they wanted was more meat so maybe next time bump it up to 2 pounds and see if that makes a difference. But seriously, my picky eaters ate this with onions and garlic (I didn't tell them to look for it and diced onions really small) without picking it out and said they didn't know it was in there until they were finished eating when I told them what all was in it. Thank you for the delicious recipe!

I am going to make this to take to my parents home for our passing dish for this coming Easter Sunday dinner, and I cannot tell you how excited I am, I will be using venison from a nice doe I took last fall instead of beef or lamb, I can't help but think it's gonna be a massive hit! Thank you! I love your channel and I love my Ninja Foodi!

Hi Louise try piping your mashed potato on, you’ll get a more even distribution. The lid gets in the way so I take the pot out of the ninja foodi so I can make a good job of piping the mash, you can then sprinkle you cheeses on before putting it back in to air crisp. Love your recipes and videos.

[@elizabethshaw734]

By continuing to stir with a chop & stir once the meat was done you have turned it into baby food. I lived in the UK for over 10 years and my dad was from Scotland as well as his parents and grandparents who came here a long time ago. There is never any garlic whether it's fresh or roasted in a cottage pie or shepherd's pie. These were meant to be very quick meals because there is no crust that could be thrown together on a break from tending a flock or a busy day at home. Once UMass potatoes go on the top you want to make a pattern with a fork so that you've got Peaks and valleys and you only want a smattering of G's you don't want to cover the whole thing with a cup of two of cheese. Just a couple of tips and an FYI for anybody willing to read this! :-)

[@TheSaltedPepper]

This is a very quick meal and there IS garlic in my recipe. It adds a great flavor. Just because you don't add something, doesn't mean that it can't be added. The meat was chopped to perfection, I assure you it was NOT the consistency of baby food. Your rude comments are completely unnecessary. Tips are great when they are helpful and kind. Your comments are so rude that I doubt anyone will find value in them.

[@ChristineThomas333]

As a born Scot, I am amazed at the combinations of ingredients included in your recipe. I am sure it is delish., but I guess as a purist of my families comfort food recipies I am trying to figure out how to make it in my newly purchased Ninja 8qt. We never used corn or garlic, not something in Scotland that was used 'back in the day', and we did not put cheese on it in my household either, kept it simple. I always have to use Bisto for my gravy and HP sauce on the side. But, I will give your recipe a try. Thank you for all of your tips. Love and light.

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Yes, I definitely put a spin on the traditional way it's made, but it is very good if you like the added ingredients. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Great recipe and video and I'm certainly going to try this soon. I've had my ninja foodi about two weeks now and love it! Thank you for all the effort and inspiration you give. Full marks for nearly pronouncing worcestershire sauce correctly :) I'm from the UK and we just say it like it sounds "Woster Sauce"

LOL! That is so funny! Worcestershire is one of those words that gets me every time. I have a funny video clip of me saying it wrong and laughing the whole time.

[@linda7452]

Hubby bought me the Ninja Foodi last Christmas 2018, and finally after watching many of your wonderful videos this past week, I pulled out the Foodi. Even joined the FB group! It's great because it doesn't heat up my kitchen in S. FL. I love your approach and method of explanation - learn something new every time. I've wandered around the KZbin watching others using the Ninja, but you are in a class of your own and really have that Food Channel quality! I remember my British grandmother (60 yrs ago) making Shepherd's pie when I was a little girl. She did make it with a pie crust if my memory is correct. I loved it! I found a recipe years ago for making "Shepherd"s Pie" with lobster (cottage?) and it was absolutely delicious! Don't know what I did with the recipe, but it takes the dish up a notch, especially with wine in the sauce. Between Amazon and Pampered Chef I have a cabinet full of new kitchen cooking/baking items and my husband loves my renewed interest in cooking thanks to you! One request, if you ever come up with some meals that are converted to Keto, I would really appreciate your adaptation. I am seriously thinking of doing a Keto lifestyle diet (so hard cuz I love sweets), because I really need to cut back & lose some extra weight I have gained over the last several years. Any thoughts? Always watching and catching up! Great videos!!!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

Hi Linda! Thanks so much for the kind words! I, too, need to lose weight after this past year of cooking and cooking and cooking! LOL I plan on focusing on healthy foods in January and since we eat low carb a lot of the time, I think you'll find the recipes very adaptable to keto. I don't follow keto and I do use some honey and things like that in my recipes, but they are definitely on the healthier side.

Great video, Shepherds pie was made with lamb as shepherds usually had this, as there job was looking after sheep. also it was usually made with a pastry base, that way they could easily carry it into the fields (their workplace) without any further packaging.

[@dianekistner7650]

Louise, I want to thank you for explaining the WHY of what you are doing. I am a lousy, lousy cook and have never been able to follow recipes because the rigid "Do this, do this, do this" aspects are real turn-offs for me. I am a conceptual learner, and I want to understand how things are supposed to work, not just follow steps. So, for example, your explanation about adding the flour and how to tell when you've added enough is great. I never understood why people add flour to recipes anyway, and now I not only know but know how to know I've added enough or not enough! I just ordered a Ninja Foodi thanks to you, even though I have two Instant Pots and a multifryer. (All I've been able to do so far is french fries, rice, and soup.) Please, in the future, comment on the new non-meat meats that are starting to become available (like the Beyond Meat and Impossible Meat products) and how using them might change how to approach your recipes. (Eating less meat is purported to be one of the best things individuals can do to help slow climate change, but I do so love my meat and cheese.)

Amazing video! My cottage pie turned out great thanks so much for the tips. Looks fab and extra crispy with a criss cross pattern in the potato topping too! From Yvey (Manchester, England, UK)

Thank You! I am so glad you liked it!

Just got the Foodi for Christmas and have watched so many of your videos and tried some of your recipes. I feel like every day I'm buying another utensil I see featured in your videos 😆. I love how you demonstrate how to actually do each and every step, suggest options for substitutes, point out which ingredients are optional, and link everything so it's so easy to go back and find whatever you need to reference. Have you ever tried making tamales or pozole in the Foodi?!

[@TheSaltedPepper]

I tried tamales once and didn't get the filling right. They are on my list though. I'm so glad you are enjoying the videos. Here is my website in case you want to print the recipes: thesaltedpepper.com

I never heard of cottage pie. But I guess that's how I've always made it... haha 😄 no way lamb. I'm with you. Great recipe Thanks Louise...

Hi Louise... I've watched quite a few of your videos now and have heard you say you struggle with mash. Once you have mashed, get a wooden spoon and beat hard... It's all in the finishing... I am the mash master.. lol. Also - might I suggest you add your carrots in a separate layer to the pressure cook? Save you overdoing the rest while waiting for carrots. Cheers x

This is a fantastic dish. I think next time I will par boil the carrots. Mine took an extra twenty minutes on medium to really soften. Also, I took mine out of the foodi and put the the mix in individual pot pie bowls before I added the potatoes and cheese. Then I did the final heating in the oven. Everybody has there own masterpiece that way.
