Missy Loong and Missy Chua wants to make something simple and delicious for afternoon tea. The best option will be something we both have experience making.
Thus, we thought of the Shepherd's Pie! ♥
The ingredients: (Makes about 15)
Chicken thigh approx 600g
6 medium sized potatoes (best if from holland or USA)
Butter approx 200g
Less than half a cup milk
Some pepper to taste
Salt to taste
Corn flour for marinate
Light soya sauce for marinate
Cheese (optional)
The most tedious part is to skin the chicken(not alive) and to cut away all the fats.
This is the amount of fats after the chicken went for liposuction. Damn gross!!!!.
Anyone still wants to eat KFC mash potato sauce??
Cut the piece of meat into small cubes.
Do a simple marinate:
2 tablespoon corn flour
Pepper
5 tablespoon of light soya sauce
Mix Well.........
Miss YY used her hands to "massage" the chicken to give it the "extra" flavour (Everybody who ate pretend u didn't see this)
Leave it to soak it up the marinade for about 15 minutes.
While waiting for the chicken, peel the potatoes and bring to boil till soft.
Next, add some oil to the pan and you can fry the chicken cubes.
Until it turn white, it will then be ready to be served.
Distribute the meat equally.
It should fill the base of the trays.
When the potato is all soft and mushy, mash it up in a large bowl and add butter, milk and some salt to taste.
Before Mashing. About 1/3 stick of butter
After Mashing like mad...........
Use a spoon and spread the mashed potato evenly onto the trays to cover up the chicken cubes. You may use a fork to make some patterns on the potato.
(Spot one with rose pattern)
Using the eggs yolks only, glaze the surface of the potato. One egg yolk is enough
You have to do it gently if not all the potatoes will be stuck to the brush.
While waiting for the batches of sheperd's pie to bake we were snacking(as usual) on some other varieties of potatoes. We came to a conclusion that Calbee's Hot and Spicy is still the best!
