Since my dad is staying with my wife and I and is vegan, I split it into two pans and just didn't put any of the butter and cheese into his potatoes and it worked! Everyone loved it. I've never used marjoram in my cooking before but this is the second recipe of yours (the other being the cabbage soup) that calls for this delicious spice.

The only connection between tongue and shepherd's pie is that just reading about the tongue put me off meat altogether for a bit, and so I made my pie with lentils instead of ground beef or turkey (or lamb). You'll be perfectly safe ordering shepherd's pie in a pub.Jean | DelightfulRepast.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02038772991628796917noreply@blogger.com
