    Categories: Dinner, Pies
    Yield: 1 Pie

    3 lb Round boiling potatoes such
    -as Yukon Gold
    1 tb Butter; up to 3 tb, to
    -taste, for mashed potatoes
    1 c Milk; for mashed potatoes
    1 lg Onion; chopped
    4 cl Garlic; up to 6, minced
    1 1/2 lb Ground lamb
    1 c Peas; fresh or frozen
    1 c Green beans; chopped into
    -1/4" sections
    3 lg Carrots; cut into small
    -cubes
    1 1/2 c Mushrooms; roughly chopped
    2 ts Dried thyme
    2 ts Fresh rosemary; finely
    -chopped -OR-
    2 ts Dried rosemary
    1/4 c Flat-leaf parsley; finely
    -chopped
    1/2 c Dry red wine
    1/4 c Flour
    Salt and pepper; to taste
    Sweet paprika; for garnish

    Preheat oven to 350°F.

    Chop potatoes into large pieces (if you prefer, you can peel them
    first) and boil in heavily salted water until tender.

    Drain and mash, adding 1 cup milk and 1 to 2 tb of butter until the
    desired consistency is reached. Season with salt and pepper to taste
    and set aside.

    In a large pot, saute onion and garlic in a small amount of butter or
    olive oil over medium high heat for approximately 5 minutes.

    Add lamb and saute until browned.

    Add all vegetables and herbs and cook, stirring frequently, for
    another 10 minutes or until the vegetables have softened and browned
    slightly, but still have some crunch to them.

    Add red wine and cook for a few minutes more, or until the wine has
    mostly evaporated. Taste and season with salt and pepper as necessary.

    Stir flour into lamb and vegetable mixture, mixing well, and then
    pour into a 9x13" baking dish, or a couple of smaller square baking
    dishes. Level with the back of a spatula or spoon and then spread
    mashed potatoes on top in a fairly thick, even layer (you may end up
    with some left over, depending on the depth of your baking dish).
    Drag the tines of a fork across the top of the mashed potatoes in a
    straight or swirled pattern to create tiny ridges (these will get
    nicely browned when it bakes), then sprinkle with paprika.

    Bake at 350°F for 30-40 minutes and enjoy!
