Do the French do shepherd’s pie better? 🇫🇷🔥
This is Parmentier d’agneau — made with 7-hour braised lamb, buttery mash, and absolutely no frozen peas.
Crispy top, rich lamb filling, and mash on another level… this one might start a war in the comments 👀

SEA SALT!NI NEED YOU SEA SALT!
too much butter, not enough peas
This is it, this is the winner
this sounds really tasty but that's so much effort and time… and no peas…
Now hear me out, bone marrow instead of butter
They should rename ‘France’ to just ‘extra’
You guys could take a literal piece of s**t and figure out a way to charge 500 dollars a plate for it
Le plat prefert de mon Papa, et la version avec au canard l'a completement epoustouflée. C'est un plat qu'il ne mange pas souvent parce qu'il habite en Centrafrique 🇨🇫. Alors quand il vient en France nous voir, je le regale. Dans une famille 🇨🇫🇳🇬🇫🇷catho et muslim 😂🤣ça ma toujours fait rire que ce soit son plat favori. Bonne fete de Pâque 😁✌🏾
Him: can the French make shepherds pie better?…
Me, a British man: my brother across the channel, we have made the WW2 ration food our entire legacy, kiss our coloniser behinds.
Just recently started seeing a shepherd, this was my motivation to ask her if she likes shepherd's pie so I can cook for her
I like peas…
Frozen peas are great, stop being so french
Other than the breadcrumbs, that's just a traditional English shepherd's pie recipe.
Minced lamb isn't traditional, sliced lamb is.
To pea or not to pea
Buttair😂
I like peas tbh
The French do everything better than the dutty Engleesh 😂
Peas on the side alla matheson – also personal opinion: the mixture looks a little bit too fine. I think larger chunks of carrots, lamb, parsnips, mushrooms, etc. taste better when combined with the smooth texture of the mashed potatoes.
❤️
I mean historically shepards pie was made with whatever meat was around and soon yo go bad. It could even historically include pork, beef or duck
Meh too much faff and no peas + French. Let me eat my pain eh chocolate in peace. ✌
Maybe next time frenchie
I want the peas in this. Sorry not sorry 😂
Much love, what I can say is the french can elevate dishes like no one else, but the british are great at making things fast! Hand in hand, french versions of british dishes can make amazing things!
Legitimate question – what is different in the French version compared to the British?
Cottage pie when there is lamb in it.
I APPLAUD YOU PEAS RUIN A DISH LIKE THIS
French amount of butter 😅
Is the French version better (said while speaking English) DONT BE SO RUDE (you have enough good cuisine as it is, give us this atleast)
I NEED YOU SEA SALT
Agincort music begins
The butter in the mash wasnt emulsified properly and you can literally see how greasy it is at the beginning when the spoon scoops into the dish.
As an Irish man I’m not angry I’m just disappointed
peas absorb flavor and then bust. They are spectacular
French technique dictates yeas this will taste better. When I saw you making the mash, I was like yeah he’s used the skins we’ve lost this
Finally someone that hates frozen peas aa much as I do.
PEAS PLEASE
I love this
i am hearing a combination of french and british accents
Id say a vast majority of french cooking is great food. Therea a handful of things i would never touch, but its probably an 80% good 20% bad ratio
