Описание: Recipe:
Filling:
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
1 lb ground lamb
1 medium carrot, chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped
1 onion, chopped
salt
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
2 Tbsp tomato paste
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp dried rosemary
1 cup red wine
1 1/2 cups beef stock
1 bay leaf
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 cup frozen peas
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
-In a pan over medium heat, add olive oil and lamb. Break the lamb apart and cook until it starts to brown, about 7 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, onion, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix and cook for about 3 minutes, until vegetables begin to soften. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and mix for about 30 seconds. Then add tomato paste, thyme, and rosemary. Mix until fully combined and tomato paste starts to brown, about 2 minutes. Deglaze the pan with red wine and let reduce for 2 minutes. Add beef stock, bay leaf, and a pinch of salt, and pepper and mix. Simmer on low, mixing every few minutes, for an hour, until it thickens. Halfway through, preheat the oven to 375°F. After an hour, add peas and parsley and mix. Remove from heat.

Potatoes:
2 packages of Main St Bistro Steakhouse Yukon Gold Mashed Potatoes
3 Tbsp whole milk
2 Tbsp butter
1 cup cheddar cheese
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
2 egg yolks
chives, finely chopped for topping
-Remove potatoes from the packaging and add to a saucepan over medium heat. Add whole milk and butter. Mix until butter has melted and potatoes are warm throughout, about 8 minutes. Add cheddar and Parmesan cheese and mix until fully combined. Remove from heat and let potatoes cool for about 5 minutes. Add egg yolks and mix until fully combined.
-In a 7x11 inch baking dish, evenly add the lamb mixture. Then add potatoes and spread out in an even layer. Drag a fork across the top of the potatoes down and across to give the potatoes a crispy texture as they cook. Sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until potatoes are brown on top. Let sit for 10 minutes. Top with chives and enjoy!
