This was really tasty! The curry powder added a pleasing depth of flavor to this classic dish that was savory but not overpowering.

My family loved this. I was unsure about the curry, but the dish was so flavorful! I also added chopped zucchini.

Fantastic! I'm not a huge fan of shepherds pie but this was wonderful! Everyone loved it, including my picky 3 yr old.

I made this for my family and we LOVED it! I used instant mashed potatoes instead of fresh just to make things quicker.I used extra butter and milk when I made the potatoes. We also used corn instead of carrots because it was what we had and it came out great! My kids and husband enjoyed this and it was super easy

Used can of mixed veggies, and chopped cabbage. Less broth, and a smig of buttermilk, garlic and celery salt. Yummy

I absolutely would make this recipe again, but only if I had left-over mashed potatoes. A good hearty meal for a cold fall evening!

My husband and I really liked this meal. Even my picky 4 year old thought it was really good. Next time I'll serve it with biscuits.

Made this with seasoned instant mashed potatoes. Very good - my husband liked it even though he is not a curry fan

My daughter and my husband both love curry but I am not a fan. To please them I tried this recipe and they both loved it. My daughter told me that this recipe is definitely a keeper.
