1.5 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 carrots, peeled and diced small

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 pounds ground lamb

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons tomato paste or 1/2 cup tomato sauce

2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon freshly chopped rosemary leaves

2 teaspoon freshly chopped thyme leaves

1/2 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels

1/2 cup fresh or frozen English peas

1/2 tsp chilli flakes

2 pounds russet potatoes

1/3 cup half-and-half

6 tbsp unsalted butter

1.5 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Place the canola oil into a 12-inch saute pan and set over medium high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the onion and carrots and saute just until they begin to take on color, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and stir to combine. Add the lamb, salt and pepper and cook until browned and cooked through, approximately 3 minutes. Sprinkle the meat with the flour and toss to coat, continuing to cook for another minute. Add the tomato paste, chicken broth, Worcestershire, rosemary, thyme, and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer slowly 10 to 12 minutes or until the sauce is thickened slightly.

Add the corn and peas to the lamb mixture and spread evenly into an 11 by 7-inch glass baking dish. Top with the mashed potatoes, starting around the edges to create a seal to prevent the mixture from bubbling up and smooth with a rubber spatula. Place on a parchment lined half sheet pan on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 25 minutes or just until the potatoes begin to brown. Remove to a cooling rack for at least 15 minutes before serving.
