  • 1 cup fresh frozen OR canned corn
  • 1 cup fresh frozen OR canned peas

Instructions

  • Turn water on to boil in a medium pot
  • Peel 3-4 potatoes, chop them into about 1 inch cubes then them to the pot
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
  • Season ground beef with salt and pepper, brown in a frying pan on medium heat
  • Dice 1/2 yellow onion and add to beef as it browns
  • Dice carrots until you have about 1 cup and add to beef and onion mixture
  • Cover frying pan with lid for about 5 minutes
  • Uncover and add 3 tablespoons flour and 1/2 cup water. Stir well to incorporate
  • Add 2 teaspoons Montreal Steak Spice and stir
  • Add 1 cup each corn and peas, mix well and leave on medium-low while you do the potatoes
  • Check if potatoes are cooked by piercing with a fork. Drain and return to pot
  • Add 1 tablespoon butter, 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt, 1/ teaspoon seasoning salt to the potatoes and mash until smooth
  • If you are using a cast iron pan, top the meat filling with the potatoes. If not, transfer the meat filling to an oven safe dish and top with potatoes
  • Bake for about 10 minutes or until potatoes turn a little golden brown. Broiling will brown the potatoes quicker but don't leave them unsupervised.. broil can burn quickly!
