How to Make Americanized Shepherd's Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Peel and chop 2 lbs potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Add to a large pot and cover with salted water.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender.
- Drain potatoes and return them to the pot. Add 1/4 cup butter and 1/2 cup milk. Mash until smooth and creamy.
- Set mashed potatoes aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 medium chopped onion and cook for 5 minutes, until softened. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Add 1.5 lbs ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce and 2 tablespoons ketchup.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup beef broth and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour until smooth. Add to the beef mixture along with 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Stir in 1 can (10.75 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup and 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Pour the beef mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the top.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
