Scale
  • 1 lb ground lamb or beef
  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Fresh thyme and rosemary

  2. In a skillet, melt butter and sauté onions and carrots until soft. Add garlic for an additional minute.
  3. Increase heat, add ground meat, and cook until browned (6–8 minutes).

  5. Drain potatoes, mash with butter and milk until creamy; season to taste.
  6. Layer meat mixture in a baking dish, top with mashed potatoes, creating peaks.
