Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 tablespoons Butter
2 tablespoons Flour
2 2 1/2 cups canned beef stock
1 cup Frozen peas
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Fresh thyme; finely chopped
2 tablespoons Fresh flat-leaf parsley; finely chopped
Salt and pepper; to taste
Leftover vegetables
Leftover beef; cut into 1/2\"

Leftover mashed potatoes

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Melt the butter in a medium saucepan, add the flour and cook over medium-low heat for 3 - 4 minutes.

Add the 2 cups of the stock and cook, whisking until thickened. If too thick, add the additional ½ cup stock to thin slightly. Add the peas, Worcestershire, thyme, and parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Fold in the vegetables and beef, then pour into a lightly buttered 1½ quart baking dish. Top with the leftover mashed potatoes, spreading them out to completely cover the top. Place on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and preheat the broiler. Place the pie under the broiler and broil for 3 - 4 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Let sit 5 minutes before serving.
