How to Make Shepard's Pie Venison Style
- Cut onion and green bell pepper into small pieces but not minced.
Mince celery - Season ground venision well in skillet
Add onion, green pepper & celery.
There is no fat content in wild game..the vegies will add their own moisture to the skillet but Be prepared to add a bit of oil to facilitate the frying process.
Put a good brown on it for good flavor..the vegies should be soft -but don't burn them - Add worcestire sauce, stir and taste. It should enhance the flavors..not overpower them
Add the fire roasted tomatoes and cook on med.heat till all vegies are fully cooked. - Remove mixture with all it's juices to 9x13 dish
- While meat & vegies are browning..
Cube potatoes and boil till soft. Drain
Add a stick of butter and give them a rough mash. I also add a little salt & pepper to the potatoes. - Top mixture in 9x13 with mashed potatoes
Top potatoes with some shred yellow cheese. - Bake at 400 degrees till heated through and top has browned a bit.
Serve with a hearty bread if possible.
