Removed likely of English origin, as it can't be both excessively referenced as originating in England and also not definite. You wouldn't say pizza is likely Italian.

Shepherd's pie or cottage pie is a ground meat pie with a crust or topping of mashed potato of English origin.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

The dish has many variants, but the defining ingredients are ground red meat cooked in a gravy or sauce with onions, and a topping of mashed potato. Sometimes other vegetables are added to the filling, such as peas, sweetcorn, celery or carrots. It is sometimes also gratineed with grated cheese.

Etymology

The term cottage pie was in use by 1791.[2][7]

The term shepherd's pie did not appear until 1854,[2] and was initially used synonymously with cottage pie, regardless of whether the meat was beef or mutton.[1][4][8][9][10][11][12][13][pages needed][excessive citations] However, in the UK since the 21st century, the term shepherd's pie is used more commonly when the meat is lamb.[14][15][16]

The French name hachis Parmentier is documented in French in 1900,[17] and in English in 1898.[18] A hachis is anything finely chopped;[19] the English word 'hash' is borrowed from it.[20] 'Parmentier' is Antoine-Augustin Parmentier, after whom many potato dishes were named, as he was instrumental in the promotion of the potato in France in the 18th century.

History

In early cookery books, the dish is given as a way of using leftover roasted meat of any kind, and the pie dish was lined on the sides and bottom with mashed potato, as well as having a mashed potato crust on top.[9][10]

In France, hachis Parmentier was a "commonplace" and "homely" dish of the cuisine bourgeoise, which was nonetheless given place of honor at a Culinary Exhibition in Paris.[18]

Hachis parmentier is an economical way of using leftover meat, especially from pot-au-feu. Henri-Paul Pellaprat lists it in his section on leftovers,[21] as does the "bible" of bourgeois cuisine, Mme. St-Ange, under the name hachis de bœuf au gratin.[22]

A more elaborate version in 1921 by Auguste Escoffier consisted of a baked potato whose contents were emptied, mixed with diced meat and sauce lyonnaise, and returned to the potato shells or skins to be baked.[23] This version is not found in standard cookbooks.[21][22]

Variations and similar dishes

Sometimes there is a bottom layer of potato as well as a top.[24]

Other potato-topped pies include:

  • Potato pie is a ground red meat pie topped with mashed potato; the difference is that the potato pie does not include any other vegetables.[citation needed]
  • The modern Cumberland pie is a version with either beef or lamb and a layer of breadcrumbs and cheese on top. In medieval times, and modern-day Cumbria, the pastry crust had a filling of meat with fruits and spices.[25]
  • In Canada, pâté chinois (French) or shepherd's pie (English) is made in a casserole dish with ground beef on the bottom layer, canned (creamed) sweetcorn in the middle, and mashed potato on top.
  • Shepherdess pie or shepherdless pie is a vegetarian version made without meat, or a vegan version made without meat and dairy.[26]
  • In the Netherlands, a very similar dish called philosopher's stew (Template:Lang-nl) often adds ingredients like beans, apples, prunes, or apple sauce.[27]
  • In Brazil, the name escondidinho 'hidden' describes the way sun-dried meat is hidden under a layer of manioc purée. The dish often includes cheese and chicken; cod is sometimes used instead of beef.[28]
  • A St. Stephen's Day pie is made with turkey and ham.[29]
  • Fish pie is another part of English cuisine, made of fish and seafood in a béchamel sauce all topped with mashed potato.
  • In Irish this dish is known as pióg an aoire.[30]
  • Similar dishes are the Argentinian pastel de papa 'potato pie' and the Uruguayan pastel de carne 'meat pie'.
  • In Indonesia, pastel tutup 'closed pie' is usually made with chicken and several vegetables such as carrot, green peas and boiled eggs, all topped with mashed potatoes.
  • In Portugal, empadão includes meat that is usually stewed in a tomato-based gravy and layered several times between the mashed potatoes. Poultry or fish are also sometimes used instead of meat.
