Shepherd's Pie

What is it?

Lamb mince sits in a savoury gravy, then gets capped with mashed potato and baked until the top turns lightly browned. It’s a classic British pie format in a tray, with the filling kept separate from the mash until cooking. Compared with other Charlie Bigham’s frozen meals, this one leans on simple components rather than extra sauces or layered add-ins. The texture is usually about contrast: soft mash on top, loose meat sauce underneath. Served from frozen, it’s meant to be heated through in the oven.
