Originally shepherd's pie was a simple way to prepare the leftovers from a Sunday roast beef dinner using the debris from the roast, the gravy, and the mashed potatoes. There really is not any better comfort food than that.

Making it fresh with ground beef defeats the entire purpose and doesn't yield near the satisfying result.

Actually it was made with lamb, hence the name shepards pie. And I've never had one with cheese in it. A beef pie has a different name but I'm not sure what it is called.

If you smooth the potatoes over like a frosting then run a fork through it you get the same browning as above posted.
