Making a liquor pie and mash is the perfect way to indulge in a comforting and satisfying meal. This classic British dish is packed with flavor and is surprisingly easy to make. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of know-how, you can create a mouthwatering liquor pie and mash that will have your taste buds singing with joy. So grab your apron and let’s get cooking!
To start, you’ll need some basic ingredients for the pie filling. You’ll need ground beef, onions, carrots, and peas. You’ll also need a few simple seasonings such as salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce to enhance the flavor of the filling.
To start, heat a large pan over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook the beef until it’s browned and then add in the onions, carrots, and peas. Cook until the vegetables are tender and then add in the seasonings. Let the filling simmer for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
While the filling is simmering, you can start on the mashed potatoes. Peel and chop some potatoes, then boil them in a pot of salted water until they’re soft. Drain the potatoes and then mash them with some butter, milk, and salt and pepper to taste.
Now it’s time to assemble the pie. Start by preheating your oven to 375°F. Spoon the filling into a pie dish and then top it with the mashed potatoes, spreading them out evenly over the filling. Use a fork to create some texture on the top of the potatoes, which will help them to brown and crisp up in the oven.
Once the pie is assembled, pop it into the oven and bake it for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
While the pie is baking, you can prepare the liquor sauce. In a small saucepan, melt some butter and then stir in some flour to create a roux. Gradually whisk in some beef stock and a splash of Worcestershire sauce, then let the sauce simmer until it thickens up.
When the pie is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, serve the pie slices with a generous drizzle of the warm liquor sauce on top.
And there you have it – a delicious liquor pie and mash that’s sure to impress your family and friends. So why not whip up this comforting and hearty dish for your next dinner? With its savory filling, creamy mashed potatoes, and flavorful liquor sauce, it’s a meal that’s guaranteed to be a hit. Enjoy!
