Description
This whole 30 shepherds pie is paleo friendly and full of real food and flavor. Celery, cauliflower, peas, carrots, tamarind, and broth naturally flavor a healthy and balanced meal.
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- olive oil (1 tsp divided)
- 1/2 yellow onion (medium)
- 1 shallot clove
- 4 carrots (I used one purple, one yellow and two orange)
- 3 Ribs celery
- 1 cup cauliflower florets
- 2.5 cups bone broth (divided)
- 1 cup peas
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon marjoram
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (divided)
- pepper
- 5 sprigs fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons tamarind paste (can sub tomato paste)
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Cut sweet potatoes in large cubes and boil in salt water until soft.
- Dice yellow onion and shallot
- Drizzle about 1/2 tsp oil in large saute pan on medium heat and add in onions and shallot. Saute for 2-3 minutes or until translucent
- Meanwhile, slice carrots and celery into uniform slices. Chop cauliflower
- Add carrots, celery, and cauliflower to the pan. Mix in 1/2 cup broth. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-12 minutes
- Add in peas, ground beef, about 1/4 tsp salt, and spices. Dice parsley and add to mix along with remaining broth and tamarind paste. Stir well.
- Simmer for 15 minutes and preheat the oven to 450
- While the meat mixture is simmering, drain sweet potatoes
- Mash sweet potatoes with remaining olive oil, 1 tbsp water and remaining salt
- Spread beef mixture evenly across 4 6-inch round baking dishes. The liquid sauce should go to the middle of each dish. If you have excess broth, you can discard or serve on the side as a gravy.
- Evenly spread mashed potatoes over the top of each pan, frosting the sweet potatoes on top of the veggies and meat like you would frosting on a cake. Make peaks in the potatoes like you would to merengue.
- Bake at 450 degrees for 15-18 minutes or until potatoes are crisped at the peaks and the edges are slightly golden brown.
- Serve and enjoy!
