Minced Beef With Garlic Potato Crust Pie Lazy Darren image

My own version of the comfort Sunday roast shepherd's/cottage pie. The laziest way I know besides buying a frozen or delivery service, which is essentially paying a premium for defrosting. So try it out if you will and see if it suits your palate.
