Time 1h25m

Yield 6 to 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 pounds ground beef (90 percent lean)
Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup beef broth
1 1/2 cups frozen chopped peas and carrots, thawed
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar
One 32-ounce package potato tots

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook until slightly softened, about 4 minutes, then add the ground beef and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Cook, breaking up clumps with a wooden spoon, until brown, about 8 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-high and add the allspice, nutmeg and white pepper. Sprinkle the flour on top and stir until incorporated. Stir in the heavy cream and beef broth and bring to a simmer. Add the peas and carrots and parsley.
  • Pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle 1 cup cheese evenly on top. Top with the potato tots and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese on top.
  • Bake until the potato tots are golden brown, about 40 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before serving.
