Recipe steps:
-
Cook potatoes and carrots
Preheat oven to 450ºF. Peel potatoes and carrots. Cut potatoes and half of the carrots into 1-inch pieces. Add cut potatoes and carrots to a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil and simmer until soft, 12–15 minutes. -
Prep ingredients
Meanwhile, finely chop remaining carrots. Peel and finely chop onion and garlic. -
Make mash
Drain potatoes and carrots, return to pot, and mash with butter. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cover and set aside. -
Cook meat
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet over high. Add meatloaf mix, 1 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up large pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned, 4–5 minutes. -
Finish meat
Add garlic, onion, and carrots and cook until starting to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and ½ cup water. Simmer, scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until liquid is reduced, about 2 minutes more. Stir in peas and vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. -
Bake
Spoon meat into an ovenproof dish and spread evenly. Cover meat with vegetable mash, smoothing top. Place in top ⅓ of the oven and bake until golden on top, about 15 minutes. Enjoy!
