55 min6 servingsIntermediateBritish-American

Ingredients

  • 1,5 lb ground beef
  • 2 lb russet potatoes, peeled
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 0,5 cups whole milk
  • 1 cups yellow onion, diced
  • 1 cups carrots, diced
  • 1 cups frozen peas
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 cups beef broth

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F and grease a 9x13 dish.

  2. 2

    Boil potatoes until tender, then mash with butter and milk until fluffy.

  3. 3

    Brown the ground beef with onion, then stir in carrots, peas, tomato paste, and Worcestershire.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle flour over the meat and cook 2 minutes, then add broth and simmer until thickened.

  5. 5

    Spread the beef mixture in the dish and top with mashed potatoes, forming peaks with a fork.

  6. 6

    Bake 30 minutes until the potato peaks are golden and the filling bubbles at the edges.

Chef's tip

Brush the potato topping with a little melted butter before baking — it deepens the browning and adds a glossy finish.

Suggested pairing

A dark, malty English ale or a Cabernet Sauvignon suits this hearty bake.
