The best shepherd’s pie starts with good local lamb, fresh potatoes and seasonal root vegetables. Use the BFFD map to find farm shops, farmers markets and producers near you.
Shepherd’s pie is one of Britain’s most beloved comfort dishes. Made with minced lamb, seasonal root vegetables and topped with creamy mashed potato, it is a meal that makes the most of good quality, locally sourced ingredients.
It is an ideal dish for batch cooking, feeding families and making the most of seasonal British produce. A well made shepherd’s pie can stretch across two meals, freezes well and improves in flavour the following day.
At BFFD, we believe the best shepherd’s pie starts with good lamb from a local farm, potatoes from a nearby grower and carrots and onions bought from a farm shop or farmers market.
