This was Holt's ingenious idea for what to do with a lot of leftover ragù from Friday: use it as the base for an Italianate shepherd's pie. It went as the lowest layer in a deep casserole, which was then topped with white mashed potatoes, thickened with two beaten eggs, and with grated romano mixed in and as topping. The inspiration for that topping was, as before, the overexposed but very talented Gordon Ramsay.
With it, we had a red Grão Vasco Dão 2005 - not as good a Portuguese as the Poeta, and should have been an Italian anyway, for this savory but unusual meal.
