This is for Lillian who is currently in hospital in Australia and suffering some truly dreadful food. Her email made me think about simple comfort food and what could be more comforting that a home made shepherds pie?
By chance Sunday lunch was a leg of lamb roasted on the spit with vegetables cooked beneath it.
Served on a bed of cous cous with fresh mint it was scrummy.
I'm not fond of cold lamb so it was minced and used to make individual shepherds pies cooked in metal rings to hold the shape.

The potatoes on top are called Vitelotte, an ancient breed that has a deep inky purple colour. They taste delicious and the intense colour is a bonus.
Enjoy!
Get well soon Lillian X
My blog seems to have become more about food than anything else, but that is because it is a passion. When I don't have guests I like experimenting and creating new dishes, or new ways of serving traditional recipes using fresh local ingredients.But I have also been hunting for lovely linens for you, more about that later.
