Indian Shepherd's Pie

Cultural Context

Indian Shepherd's Pie, or Keema Pie, combines the traditional British shepherd's pie with Indian spices and flavors. It reflects the colonial history of India, where British culinary influences merged with local ingredients. This dish is often enjoyed in Indian homes as a comforting meal, showcasing the versatility of keema (minced meat) and mashed potatoes. Today, it has gained popularity beyond India, with variations appearing in fusion cuisine around the world.
