Cover the potatoes with cold water in a large pot; season with salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until tender; 15-20 minutes

In the meantime, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; stir in the onion and carrots. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 6 minutes.

Increase heat to medium-high and add in the lamb. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon until no pink remains; about 5 minutes. Drain fat and season with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper.

Stir in the garlic and thyme; cook until fragrant.

Make space in the center; add the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the Worcestershire and wine; simmer until skillet is nearly dry, about 2 minutes.

Add the beef broth and simmer until the mixture is saucy, 4-5 minutes.

Stir in 1/2 cup frozen peas.

Transfer to a greased 3-quart baking dish.

Drain the potatoes and return to pot; add the butter and half n half; mash well. Season with salt and pepper and add in the mustard, scallions, and cheddar cheese.

Spread the potatoes over the meat with the back of a spoon, then make ridges with the tines of a fork.

Bake at 425 degrees F until the toping is golden, about 20-25 minutes.

Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving (If you cut into it too soon, everything will collapse. It needs a little time to set.)NOTE: For helpful tips, and prepping the ingredients and casserole ahead of time, please refer to the article.
