Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground Lamb
  • 1 large head Cauliflower
  • 1 cup Carrots
  • 1 cup Peas
  • 1 medium Onion
  • 1 cup Beef Broth
  • 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 0.25 cup Milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. 2Place the large head of cauliflower into a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the cauliflower is very tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the cauliflower thoroughly. Add the 2 tablespoons of butter, 0.25 cup of milk, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper to the drained cauliflower. Mash until smooth and set aside.
  3. 3Heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat (350°F/175°C).
  4. 4Add the 1 lb of ground lamb to the hot skillet. Cook, breaking it up into small pieces with a spoon, until it is browned all over, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. 5Add the 1 medium chopped onion and the 1 cup of chopped carrots to the skillet with the lamb. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion and carrots are softened, about 5 minutes.
  6. 6Stir in the 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, 1 cup of beef broth, and 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce. Add the 1 cup of peas. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  7. 7Pour the lamb and vegetable mixture into a baking dish. Carefully spread the prepared cauliflower mash evenly over the top of the lamb mixture.
  8. 8Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower topping is lightly golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
