Ingredients
Beef Mixture
- 800 g beef mince
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion Finely chopped
- 2 carrots Peeled, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic Minced
- 2 tbsp tomato puree
- 250 ml beef stock
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp thyme Dried
- 1 tsp rosemary Dried
- black pepper To taste
- salt To taste
Mashed Potatoes
- 1 kg potatoes Peeled and cut into chunks
- 100 ml milk

Extras

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion, diced carrots, and minced garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, approximately 5 minutes.
- Add ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, using a wooden spoon to break it up.
- Stir in tomato paste, beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes to allow the flavours to blend. Remove from heat.
- In a separate pot, boil peeled and chunked potatoes in salted water until tender when pierced with a fork, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.
- Add milk and butter to the pot with the potatoes. Mash them until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the beef mixture to a baking dish and spread the mashed potatoes evenly on top. Optionally, sprinkle grated cheese over the mashed potatoes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until the top is golden and the filling is bubbling.
- Allow the cottage pie to cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the cottage pie hot and enjoy!
