    Shepard’s pie is Irish btw. Not a surprise a scouser would be able to make a good one when Liverpool has a large Irish community.

      Common myth, not true.

      First recorded recipe for Shepherds Pie is from a Scottish cookbook from 1849. First recorded use of Cottage Pie is 1791 by an English clergyman.

      Cottage Pie was used for both lamb and beef varieties until recently and was a way of eating leftover meats.
