Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
step 2
Put a pot or dutch oven over medium heat. Add Vegetable Oil (3 Tbsp) and allow it to get hot, then add Carrot (1/2 cup), Onion (1), Celery (1/2 cup), Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Stir and cook until the vegetable softened a little, about 5 minutes.
step 3
Add Garlic (3 cloves) and cook for 30 seconds. Add Lean Ground Beef (1.5 lb), breaking it up with a spoon, add Dried Oregano (1 tsp), Dried Thyme (1/2 tsp), Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Cook until the meat has begun to brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
step 4
Add Tomato Paste (3 Tbsp) and stir until it's mixed with the meat. Add Chicken Stock (1 cup) and bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes to allow it to thicken.
step 5
Stir and taste for seasoning. Stir in the Frozen Green Peas (1/2 cup) and set aside until needed.
step 6
In the pot with the Potatoes (2.5 lb) add Butter (1 stick), Milk (1/2 cup), Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Continue mashing to make potatoes smooth and creamy.
step 7
Spread meat filling evenly into a baking dish. Top with mashed potatoes, making sure to cover the meat mixture.
step 8
Place the dish on a baking sheet so the drippings won't dirty the oven and bake in a 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until potatoes begin to brown.
step 9
Cool for 15 minutes before serving.
