Rice Shepherds Pie Recipes

Steps:

• In a nonstick pan, melt 1 tbsp of the butter and cook the garlic and onion for 2 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms and celery and cook until tender.
• Mix with the hamburger.
• Add the salt and pepper.
• Mix the mushroom soup, milk and soya sauce.
• Mix the rice with the green onions, carrots and 1/4 to 1/3 of the mushroom soup mixture.
• In a buttered casserole dish, spread half the rice mixture, then the meat mixture, followed by the remaining mushroom soup mixture.
• Top with the remaining rice mixture.
• Dot with 2 tbsp of butter, sprinkle with salt and pepper if desired.
• Bake at 350 F for 20 minutes.
• Cover with sour cream and sprinkle with paprika.
• Return to oven for 10 minutes.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the topping: Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Season with 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and reserve the saucepan.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, onion, celery, garlic, thyme and 2 teaspoons salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and tender, about 15 minutes.
• Stir in the tomato paste and cook until it turns brick red, about 8 minutes. Add the lamb, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until the meat is no longer pink, about 7 minutes.
• Stir in the peas. Stir in the flour until incorporated, about 1 minute. Add the broth and Worcestershire and cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
• To finish the topping, melt the butter in the large saucepan over medium heat. Add the cabbage and leeks and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the heavy cream, 1 tablespoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper, and cook until warm, about 1 minute. Return the potatoes to the pan with the cabbage and add the cheese. Mash with a potato masher or wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in the egg yolks.
• Transfer the filling to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add the topping, swirling to create texture. Make sure that the sides are sufficiently covered so the filling doesn't leak through. Bake until the filling is bubbly and the top is lightly golden, about 35 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Wash the beans and rice in plenty of cold water. Combine about 4 cups of water with beans and rice and cook for 5o minutes or until the beans are soft. Drain, reserving the stock for later.
• Heat oil in a skillet. Fry the onions for 3 minutes.
• Add the carrots and cook covered for 5 minutes.
• Add the cooked beans and rice. Stir well and let saute for a few minutes, ensuring that the mixture does not burn.
• Combine the soy sauce, tomato paste, herbs and stock.
• Mix well and pour into the skillet. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to very low, partially cover and simmer gently for 30 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent it burning. Add more stock if necessary.
• Transfer into a casserole. Top the cooked vegetables with mashed potatoes.
• Bake in a preheated oven at 350F for 40 minutes, or until the potatoes are browned.
• Serve with vegetables or a green salad.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring water and brown rice to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 45 to 50 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium skillet over high heat, brown the ground beef and drain fat.
• Stir the mushroom soup, green onion, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and pepper into the skillet with the beef. Simmer on medium low heat for 10 minutes. Serve over the rice.

Steps:

• Heat avocado oil in a very large skillet over medium-high heat. Add celery, mushrooms, and onion; saute until onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Crumble turkey into the skillet. Add parsley, thyme, garlic powder, pepper, red pepper flakes, and salt. Cook until turkey is no longer pink and has absorbed most of the liquid in the skillet, about 15 minutes.
• Sprinkle almond flour over the turkey mixture and cook for 1 minute. Stir in tomato sauce until combined; cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish and top with sliced zucchini.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cook cauliflower rice in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until hot, about 5 minutes. Set 1 cup aside in a large bowl. Transfer remaining cauliflower rice to a food processor with milk and 1 tablespoon butter; blend until smooth. Mix with reserved rice for added texture.
• Spread cauliflower mixture over the meat and zucchini. Cut remaining 1 tablespoon butter into small pieces and dot over the cauliflower. Sprinkle with paprika.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cauliflower topping has a golden hue, 30 to 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220˚C).
• Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the ground lamb, season with salt and pepper, and fry for 5 minutes, until cooked through.
• Add the onion, carrots, garlic, thyme, and rosemary, stir, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the veggies are softened and the meat is well-browned.
• Add the tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce and stir to incorporate. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the liquid evaporates and the meat is aromatic.
• Pour in the red wine and reduce until almost completely evaporated.
• Add the chicken stock, bring to a boil, and cook the meat until the stock has evaporated, 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the potatoes in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender. Drain, then return to the hot pan over low heat to dry out a bit.
• Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl and mash until smooth.
• Add salt, the butter, egg yolks, sour cream, and Parmesan cheese. Fold until well combined.
• Transfer the potatoes to a piping bag or zip-top bag fitted with a star tip.
• Spoon the lamb mixture into a large baking dish. Pipe the golden mashed potatoes over the lamb.
• Bake for 30 minutes, until the potatoes are golden brown.
• Enjoy!
