Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 1/2 cup yellow onion (chopped)
- 1 lb 85% lean ground beef
- 2 1/2 tsp dried parsley
- 2 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 4-5 garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 cup beef stock
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 1/2 cup frozen corn
Potato topping
- 2 lbs russet potatoes (peeled and cubed)
- 1 sticks salted butter
- 1/2 cup half and half
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
Instructions
- First, make the meat filling. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high. Once the oil is shimmering, add in the onions and saute for about 5 minutes. Add in the ground beef and cook with a wooden spoon. Add in the herbs and mix well. Cook until the meat is browned, then add in the Worcestershire sauce and garlic and stir to combine. Add the flour and tomato paste and stir until thoroughly incorporated. Add the beef stock, frozen peas, carrots, and corn. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer then set aside and preheat the oven to 400F.
- Meanwhile, make the potato topping. Place the cubed potatoes into a large stock pot and cover with water and bring to a boil. Cook the potatoes are fork tender about 10-15 minutes. Once the potatoes are fork tender, drain the water then return to the pot and allow any remaining liquid to evaporate. Add in the butter, half and half, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mash the potatoes and stir until everything is thoroughly mixed together.
- Assemble the casserole. Pour the meat mixture into a 9x9 inch baking dish and spread into an even layer. Carefully spread the potato topping into an even layer. Bake uncovered for about 25-35 minutes.
