That runny looking cornbread dressing (image 4?) could possibly be the
stuff my ex-MIL made. LOL OMG, so there IS a southern precedent. Yikes!

Gotta admit, hush puppies are wonderful fried golden nuggets of cornmeal
batter. Delicious!

I've never had peached iced tea. Never even heard of it.

Sausage gravy, yep. But certainly not every day. And not served
poured out of a glass pitcher (that's funny!)

The image of the "classic" banana bread is interesting. It's partially
sliced and the first slice is already spread with (allegedly) butter.

What the heck are "rolled greens"? Oh, collard greens. But if you
click that little link it will give you a tip about how to chop greens
quickly. Any greens. You roll up the leaves and dice them.

It's a method, not the name of anything. People who live in the south
don't call anything "rolled greens".

Good photography on this food stuff, that's for sure. It's a fun
photo gallery. Except every few clicks you have to choose to SKIP an AD.

You only have to read that "cook in a flash" recipe to know it writer
has never made it . 5 minutes in the skillet then 5 minutes in the oven
is NOT long enough to cook a pound of raw beef mince or raw onion and
carrot; or even heat through the (24-ounce) package prepared mashed
potatoes.

http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/speedy-shepherds-pie

"Place beef in a large skillet over high heat; cook 5 minutes or until
browned, stirring to crumble. Add carrot, onion, and garlic to pan; cook
2 minutes. Stir in tomato paste; cook 30 seconds. Combine 1/4 cup stock
and cornstarch in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add cornstarch
mixture, remaining 3/4 cup stock, Worcestershire, pepper, and salt to
pan. Stir in peas. Cook 2 minutes or until slightly thickened.

3. Place beef mixture in a 2-quart glass or ceramic baking dish. Top
evenly with mashed potatoes. Sprinkle freeze-dried onions and paprika
over potatoes. Bake at 500° for 5 minutes."

LOL, (yet) another American who can't make shepherd's pie :-)

5 minutes OR UNTIL BROWNED. Plus another 5 minutes (4.5 minutes
plus however long it takes to transfer all of that other stuff),
and that last 2 minutes is "until slightly thickened", which might
take more than 2 minutes. However, if you dump the cornstarch stuff
into a pan on high heat, I think what you'll get is a lumpy sauce.

All in all, a terrible recipe, but not for the reasons you state.

That's certainly not how I make it, and I don't consider shepherd's pie
to be "southern".
