Lower the temperature and allow the potatoes to cook gently until they are soft, which should take around 20 minutes.
Remove the water from the potatoes and put them back in the pot. Put the milk and butter, then crush until it is soft and creamy. Add salt and pepper to your liking. Put a lid on the pot to keep the potatoes hot while you make the sauce.
Cook the minced meat and make the sauce.
In a big frying pan, cook the ground beef on medium-high heat until it is no longer pink. Remove any extra grease.
Put the chopped onion and crushed garlic in the pan with the meat. Cook for around 5 minutes, until the onions are see-through.
Add the flour to the beef mix and stir for 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Slowly add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce while stirring, making sure to scrape off any browned pieces from the bottom of the pan. Heat the mixture until it starts to bubble gently and allow the sauce to become thicker, which should take around 5 minutes.
If you want, you can put the frozen peas and carrots in the pot during the final minutes of cooking. They bring color and extra nutrients.
Add salt and pepper to the gravy according to your preference.
Serve: Put the smooth mashed potatoes on plates or in bowls.
Put the ground beef and gravy mixture on top of the potatoes.
Heat it up and savor the coziness and warmth of this tasty dish.
I remember the first time I cooked this dish at home, my husband came into the kitchen because of the delicious smell. “What are you making?” he inquired, looking over my shoulder. When I told him, he looked very happy. He knew exactly what was going to happen.
