Instructions
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Boil the peeled and diced potatoes in a large pot until fork-tender.
Mash the drained potatoes with butter and milk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet, cook the ground lamb over medium heat until browned.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until translucent.
Stir in tomato paste, beef stock, and Worcestershire sauce; simmer to meld flavors.
Add frozen peas and carrots to the filling, then season with salt and pepper.
Spread the meat mixture in a greased baking dish and top with the mashed potatoes.
Bake for about 20 minutes until the top is golden brown.
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use starchy potatoes like Russets for the best texture. Season generously throughout the process for enhanced flavor.
