Method

Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, drain, and mash with the butter, milk, and half the salt.
Brown the lamb in the oil, breaking it up; spoon off excess fat.
Add the onion, carrots, and garlic and cook until soft, then stir in the flour and tomato paste for 1 minute.
Add the Worcestershire, thyme, broth, remaining salt, and pepper and simmer until thick, about 15 minutes; stir in the peas.
Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C), spread the filling in a baking dish, top with the mash, and rough up the surface with a fork.
Bake until golden and bubbling, about 25 minutes.
