Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs potatoes, such as russet, peeled and cubed
2 tablespoons sour cream or 2 tablespoons butter, to taste
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
1 3/4 lbs ground beef
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup beef stock or 1 cup broth
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, eyeball it
1/2 cup frozen peas, a couple of handfuls (or 1 can if your hubby is picky)
1 cup cheddar cheese (I eye ball it)

Steps:

  • Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain and fix as you would your normal mashed potatoes. I do cut back on the milk a little. You could also use instant if needed.
  • While potatoes boil, preheat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil to hot pan with beef . Season meat with salt and pepper. Brown and crumble meat for 3 or 4 minutes.
  • Add chopped carrot and onion to the meat. Cook veggies with meat 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • In a second small skillet over medium heat cook butter and flour together 2 minutes. Whisk in broth and Worcestershire sauce. Thicken gravy 1 minute. Add gravy to meat and vegetables. Stir in peas.
  • Preheat broiler to high.
  • Fill a small rectangular casserole with meat and vegetable mixture. Spoon potatoes over meat evenly. Top potatoes with cheese and broil 6 to 8 inches from the heat until cheese is evenly browned.
