Description

Keto Shepherd’s Pie with Cauliflower Mash: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe

Ingredients

Scale

1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets
1 lb ground beef or lamb
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 medium carrots, diced (optional for low-carb)
1 cup green peas (optional for low-carb)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup beef broth
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional, for topping)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook for about 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onions and garlic, cooking until softened. Add the ground beef or lamb, browning until fully cooked. Drain excess fat if needed.
Stir in the diced carrots and peas (if using). Cook for about 5 minutes.
Add tomato paste, beef broth, dried thyme, and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper. Let simmer for 10 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
In a food processor, combine the drained cauliflower, heavy cream, and season with salt and pepper. Blend until creamy and smooth.
In a baking dish, spread the meat mixture evenly on the bottom. Top with cauliflower mash, smoothing it out. If desired, sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
