My apologies to those who feel a need for universal precision in names
but I have never used the term "cottage pie" and any one-pot meat and
vegetable stew topped with a mashed potato crust browned in the oven is
"Shepherd's Pie" to me. The meat can be chicken; corned beef is unusual
but I'm sure I've had it made with British-style canned "bully beef".

I am tired of certain posters insisting we're wrong - especially when
it turns out that people over there call shepherd's pie even if it
doesn't contain lamb.

Obviously granny couldn't differenciate sheep from cows. SHEPherd has
to do with herding sheep. However I suppose one can use any meat,
even ham with spuds, and call it oinkherd's pie too.

Well, I did grow up with it and I still cook it the traditional way,
that is, made with the left over roast lamb from the night before.

That is shepherd's pie despite what others may make or call theirs.

Yep; and mayonnaise made from egg yolks and olive oil, cream made from
milk, omelettes made with whole eggs, macaroni cheese made from cheese
and macaroni. We're addicted to real recipes.

We know its all wrong but just can't stop.

Even after years spent here on the Rehab Fake Cockups twelve step
program, led by Doctor Julie Bove, I just can't stop myself making real
pies with real pastry; and real cakes, not made from a packet.
