  2. 2Whilst the potatoes bake, fry off lamb mince and brown it really well.
  3. 3Add onion and carrot, chopped rosemary and thyme and a little garlic before stirring in tomato paste.
  4. 4Add a can of stout and then bubble away until you reach a lovely thick ragu.
  5. 5Add frozen peas and set aside.
  6. 6When the potatoes are ready, half them, scoop out the soft potato, pass it through a ricer and then add butter and milk.
  7. 7Get your ragu into a baking dish.
  8. 8Add a few more chopped onions just before you put the mashed potatoes on top of the pie and before you put it in the oven.
