Step 1
You already saved yourself time with your oven! It doesn’t require preheating. Let’s get started.
Step 2
Heat a sauté pan over medium high heat. Add the
Ground Beef (680 g)
and cook 3-4 minutes until fat has begun to render and the beef is starting to brown. If needed, drain excess fat.
Step 3
Add the
Onion (1)
,
Celery (3 stalks)
, and
Carrots (2)
. Season with
Salt (to taste)
and
Ground Black Pepper (to taste)
,
Paprika (1 g)
,
Ground Thyme (as needed)
, and
Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (1 pinch)
. Cook 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are soft and the beef is completely browned. Add the
Tomato Paste (15 g)
, and distributing throughout the pan.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to medium, add the
Garlic (2 cloves)
and cook until fragrant (about 45 seconds). Add the
Green Beans (170 g)
and 1/3 of the
Chicken Stock (180 mL)
and stir to combine. Keep on low-heat, while adding more stock until the filling is moist. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Step 5
Add the
New Potatoes (3)
to a large pot and cover with
Water (as needed)
by 2 inches. Add a generous pinch of salt and boil for 10-12 minutes until the potatoes are fork tender.
Step 6
As the potatoes are cooking, add
Almond Milk (240 mL)
,
Garlic (2 cloves)
,
Clarified Butter (30 g)
, and
Fresh Thyme (1 sprig)
to a small saucepan. Heat until the butter has melted and it is hot to the touch.
Step 7
Drain the potatoes and return to the pot. Remove the thyme from the almond milk. Mash the potatoes while slowing adding the milk mixture. Mash until desired consistency achieved.
Step 8
Transfer the filling to a 9x9 baking dish or 12-inch round dish. It can also be cooked and baked in a cast-iron skillet. Spoon over the mashed potatoes and spread evenly, smoothing the top with the back of a spatula or spoon. If desired, use a fork to create a swirl pattern in the potatoes.
Step 9
Now just say 'Alexa, tell cooking challenge to start oven' and your oven will set the program automatically. Even better, the integrated microwave will save you up to 50% of the baking time.
Step 10
Serve warm in bowls. Enjoy!
