Servings: persons

750 g ground beef (that's 1/3 of a 5 lb chub)
1 white onion, diced
3 stalks celery, sliced
450 g mushrooms, cubed
100 g frozen peas
100 g frozen lima beans
100 g frozen French-cut green beans
1 (284 ml) can condensed beef broth
5 ml montreal steak spice
45 ml HP steak sauce
3 ml Worcestershire sauce
1 turnip, peeled and cubed
900 g red potatoes, peeled and cubed
30 ml butter
60 ml milk
5 ml garlic salt
30 ml dried chives

1
Set the oven to 400F.
2
Boil a large pot of water, add turnips and potatoes.
3
In a large wok or saucepan, fry ground beef until cooked, lift out beef and use fat to fry onions.
4
When onions begin to caramelize, add celery and continue to fry.
5
When celery is cooked, add mushrooms and continue to fry.
6
Put beef back in pan, add peas, lima beans, green beans, broth, Montreal Steak Spice, HP sauce, and Worcestershire sauce.
7
Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
8
Drain potatoes and turnip, mash them.
9
Add butter, milk, garlic salt, and chives, mix and mash thoroughly.
10
Grease a 13x9 pan with butter.
11
Pour in meat and vegetables, pack them down flat and even across pan.
12
Spread mashed potatoes on top.
13
I like to use plastic trowels to first get the top perfectly flat, and then use a notched trowel to put a wavy texture on it.
14
The pie may be covered with foil and refrigerated at this point if you wish.
15
Bake at 400F for 35 minutes, preferably with a convection fan, turning the pan around halfway through to brown the topping evenly.
