Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 1 lb ground beef or ground turkey
  • 1 onion diced
  • 2 carrots diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp flour optional for thickening
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 cup bone broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper
Topping
  • 3 lb potatoes
  • 1/4 cup ghee or grass-fed butter
  • 1/2 cup milk or unsweetened almond milk
  • Salt and pepper

Method
 

Make the mashed topping:
  1. Boil potatoes until fork-tender. Drain and mash with ghee or butter and milk. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Brown the meat:
  1. Set the Magnifique multi-cooker to sauté. Add ground beef or turkey and cook 6–8 minutes, breaking it up as it browns. Drain excess fat if needed.
Build the filling:
  1. Add onion, carrots, and garlic. Cook about 5 minutes until softened.
  2. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir well. Cook 1–2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Create the gravy:
  1. Stir in tomato paste and cook 1 minute.
  2. Add peas, bone broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer 5 minutes until thickened into a rich gravy.
Assemble:
  1. Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the meat mixture.
Bake:
  1. Transfer the claypot to a 400°F oven. Bake 20–25 minutes until bubbling and golden.
  2. Optional: Broil 2–3 minutes at the end for extra browning.
Rest and serve:
  1. Let rest 5 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.

Notes

Cooking Notes

  • Don’t skip the flour step unless it is an irritant-it helps to make a thicker filling
  • Letting it rest before serving makes it easier to scoop clean portions
  • This reheats well and tastes even better the next day
