Ingredients;
2, 1 pound packages ground lamb
1/2 yellow onion
3 carrots, peeled + chopped
1, 8oz bag frozen peas
6 Yukon gold potatoes
2 tbsp salted butter
1/3 cup cream
1/2 cup milk
16 oz beef broth
2 tbsp flour
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion powder
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tbsp maple syrup
Directions;
Boil potatoes until fork tender. Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees F. Heat skillet, melt butter and sauté chopped onions and carrots. Cook until onions are translucent and carrots are tender. Add 2 pounds of ground lamb and season generously with salt & pepper. Cook until browned, then add in garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and dried parsley. Drain about 3/4 of the fat from the meat and onion mixture. Add in frozen peas & 1 cup beef broth and cook for 3 minutes. Add in maple syrup (trust me it adds the perfect balance of flavor!) With the rest of the beef broth (about 1 cup) mix 2 tbsp flour to make a slurry. Add slurry to the meat mixture and cook for 3 minutes. Mash up tender potatoes and add milk, cream, butter, salt, pepper, and 1 tsp garlic powder. Next, put meat mixture into an oven safe pan and spread mashed potatoes on top. Bake pie for 20 minutes, then broil for 5 minutes to get a golden top. Let set on stovetop for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
