This isn’t your mother’s cottage pie, this is an epic two and a half hour culinary quest to conjure the most tastiest comfort humanity has discovered so far.
The pie is layered with beef or veggie mince, then crispy onions soaked with garlic, tomato, and chilli puree, butter soaked mixed vegetables, slathered in a vegetable and red wine gravy, and topped with a cheesy and creamy smooth potato and carrot mash.
My aunt and uncle now lie in a food coma whilst I have shed a single solitary manly tear as I fear this might be my peak, though I will never stop climbing to greater heights of taste!
Title picture shows a large beef mince portion for myself and my uncle. The picture in the body text below shows a small meat-free portion for my aunt.
Oh and for any Americans saying that “British people still eat like the Germans are flying overhead”: please, I beg you, come over here and try this. I GUARANTEE that you’ll stuff yourself so full on my food, you’ll have no room left to eat your words!
Bear in mind the ones that think that are the ones that think high fructose corn syrup and butter are both spices
I am absolutely stuffed, fuck off.
Ohhhh just one wafer thin slice…?
