A family recipe, refined with Richard’s own twist

Richard’s cottage pie is rooted in his mother’s hand-me-down recipe, one he’s enjoyed since childhood and now cooks with his own thoughtful enhancements. Lean beef mince is simmered with Kyogle garlic, carrots, and peas in a rich tomato and beef sauce flavoured with bay leaf, Italian herbs, Worcestershire, and a splash of red wine for depth.

The mash topping blends fluffy white potato with naturally sweet golden sweet potato, finished with melted cheese that browns beautifully in the oven. It’s a nod to tradition but with extra flavour, colour, and nutrition. Honest and hearty, this cottage pie shows how recipes passed down through families can be honoured while still evolving.
