directions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash. Mix in butter (you can add some milk as well to make it easier when spreading). Season with salt and pepper to taste; set aside.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C.).
- Heat oil in a large frying pan. Add onion and cook until clear. Add ground beef and cook until well browned. Pour off excess fat, then stir in flour and cook 1 minute. Add ketchup and beef broth, veggies, garlic powder, ketchup and tomato sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Spread the ground beef mixture in an even layer on the bottom of a 2 quart casserole dish. Next top with the mashed potato mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Delicious and very well liked!<br/><br/>Be very careful about how much water you add along with the stock. The mixture will need to be pretty dry to make a pie out of. I added a cup of stock and I spent the next hour reducing the the liquid back out again, so dinner was an hour late! I recommend just adding a stock cube instead of liquid stock.<br/><br/>I don't understand why onions are listed twice (with different amounts) in the ingredients though.
