“Fantastic! Our family loves everything about this recipe! We’d eat it once a week!”
Scalloped Potato Cottage Pie is a comforting fusion of two classics: the hearty British cottage pie and the creamy, cheesy scalloped potato bake. By layering seasoned ground meat with thinly sliced potatoes in a rich cream sauce, this dish becomes an indulgent, crowd-pleasing casserole that works beautifully for both family dinners and special gatherings.
Serve it as a complete meal, or pair it with steamed vegetables, a crisp salad, and a sprinkle of fresh herbs for color and freshness.
