At Happy Adjika, we love adding a little twist to the classics. So today, we’re bringing a Georgian-inspired Shepherd’s Pie to your kitchen, with a spoonful of our Red Adjika paste for that extra depth of spice and warmth.

Ingredients:

  • 500g minced lamb

  • 1 onion, finely chopped

  • 2 carrots, diced

  • 2 tbsp Happy Adjika Red Adjika paste

  • 200ml beef stock

  • 1 tbsp tomato paste

  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed

  • 50g butter

  • 50ml milk


Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Mash: Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and mash with butter, milk, and seasoning. Set aside.

  2. Cook the Filling: In a pan, brown the minced lamb or beef. Add onions and carrots, cooking until softened. Stir in the Red Adjika paste, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and stock. Simmer for 15 minutes, allowing the flavours to meld together.

  3. Assemble: Spoon the meat mixture into an ovenproof dish, spread the mashed potatoes on top, and use a fork to create texture.

  4. Bake: Preheat your oven to 180°C and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and bubbling.

  5. Serve: Dig in and enjoy a Georgian twist on a British classic! Pair with some buttered peas or roasted autumn vegetables for the perfect meal.


Tip: Elevate the flavours of your dish by adding a small side of Satsebeli sauce! This tangy and slightly spicy Georgian condiment is the perfect accompaniment to enhance the overall taste experience. Satsebeli sauce is traditionally made with a blend of tomatoes, garlic, vinegar, and a mix of aromatic herbs and spices, creating a rich and flavourful addition to any meal. Its vibrant red colour and bold flavour profile make it a versatile and delicious condiment that pairs well with a variety of dishes.
