Classic Beef Cottage Pie with Buttery Mash

1. 1

   Gather all the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate.

2. 2

   Put the potatoes in a pot; cover with salted water and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.

3. 3

   Drain, then mash with 2 tablespoons of the butter and the garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste; set aside.

4. 4

   Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, herbes de Provence, and nutmeg; cook and stir until the beef is lightly browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes.

5. 5

   Spread the beef evenly in the prepared pie plate. Cover evenly with the peas; spread the mashed potatoes over the peas. Dot the top of the pie with the remaining butter.

6. 6

   Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown and the filling is heated through, about 20 minutes.
