- *Note: You may want to bake your casserole on top of a baking sheet, as this does have a tendency to spill over in the oven.
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
- TO PREPARE POTATOES:
- Place a large saucepot, filled with water, on high until water boils.
- Wash and cut potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Once water is boiling, place potatoes in water (Note: I always use a large spoon to drop potatoes in boiling water for safety!) and cook for ~ 10 minutes until fork tender.
- Drain water in colander and return potatoes to pot. Mash with a large fork or potato masher until large lumps are removed. Add milk, butter, cheese, garlic and salt and pepper. With a handheld electric mixer, beat until fully incorporated and âcreamyâ, i.e. youâll still notice some lumps but potatoes are mostly smooth.
- Taste and adjust salt and pepper if needed.
- TO PREPARE THE FILLING:
- Heat a large skillet on medium heat. Add butter and turn skillet until completely melted.
- Add onion, carrots, mushrooms and celery and cook until veggies begin to sweat (about 7 minutes).
- Add beef and continue to break up with a wooden spoon. As beef begins to cook and release juices, add garlic to pan. Season with salt and pepper.
- Once beef is fully cooked, add flour and toss until fully incorporated.
- Immediately, add beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire, soy sauce and Dijon mustard. Stir well until evenly distributed. Stir in frozen vegetables.
- Bring mixture to a boil to allow sauce to thicken.
- Once boiling, remove immediately to an 8 x 8 casserole dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Top with mashed potatoes.
- Bake for 25 â 30 minutes until mixture is bubbling and potatoes are golden brown.
