Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large potatoes
  • 1 pound ground lamb or beef
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Scrub the potatoes and poke holes in them with a fork. Bake for about 45-60 minutes until tender.

  7. Top with cheddar cheese and return to the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
