Dosing:
We used 3 tablespoons of infused butter with 27mgs of THC per tablespoon, giving us 81mgs of THC in the recipe. Our recipe yielded 6 portions giving each portion with a comfortable 13-15mgs of THC.
Ingredients:
For the filling:
1 lb (450g) ground beef
1 onion, finely chopped
2 carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons THC-infused olive oil or butter (adjust potency according to preference)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh herbs (such as parsley or thyme), chopped for garnish
For the mashed potatoes:
4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
3 tablespoons THC-infused butter (adjust potency according to preference)
1/4 cup milk or cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Step 1:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Dice your veggies.
Step 2:
In a large skillet, add 1-2 tbsp. oil over medium heat.
Step 3:
Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and diced celery to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 4:
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 5:
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until browned and cooked through.
Step 6:
Stir in the tomato paste, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 7:
Pour in the beef broth and worcestershire sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 10-15 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Remove from heat.
Step 8:
While the filling is simmering, prepare the mashed potatoes. Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Step 9:
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the THC-infused butter, milk or cream, salt, and pepper. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency with more milk or cream if necessary.
Step 10:
Transfer the beef and vegetable filling to a baking dish.
Step 11:
Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the top of the filling, using a spatula to create a rustic texture.
Step 12:
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the mashed potatoes are golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
Step 13:
If desired, top with cheddar cheese and broil on high for a few minutes until cheese gets beautiful and melty!
Step 14:
Once baked, let the cottage pie cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs before serving. Enjoy your cozy, THC-infused cottage pie with mashed potatoes! Remember to consume responsibly and be mindful of dosage.
