    Preparation Steps

    1

    Peel and cube the potatoes, then boil them in salted water until tender. Drain the potatoes, then add the butter and milk, and mash until smooth and creamy.

    2

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion, carrots, and celery until softened. Add the ground lamb and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned.

    3

    Stir in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and chicken broth. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

    4

    Stir in the green peas and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

    5

    Evenly spread the meat mixture in the bottom of a baking dish. Top with the mashed potatoes, spreading them evenly and creating ridges with a fork.

    6

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the Shepherd’s Pie for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and bubbly.

    7

    Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow for easier slicing.
