Oops making a shepherds pie for dinner rez first taste of UK comfort food

Sure thing...I mean...the burnt bits are to replicate the soil that the shepherds get in their welly boots while tending the flock.

 

I mean, everybody knows that!

Oh yes, and a squeeze of ketchup and a dash of Worcester sauce! I mean, it ain't a proper shepherds pie in my gaff without those, just minced beef in gravy. Or shepherds welly dirt in muddy water...or course Rex ;)
