Method
Heat a large pan with oil and then add the minced beef, cooking until brown. Add the garlic, carrot and onion to the pan and cook for around 5 minutes until soft.
Add the chicken stock to the pan, followed by the Worcestershire sauce, tomato ketchup, chopped tomatoes and bay leaf. Bring to a boil and cook on a low heat for an hour.
In a separate bowl, boil peeled potatoes until soft. Then, drain the pan with the potatoes using a colander and return the contents to the pan. Mash the potatoes and add the milk and butter.
Once the beef mixture is cooked, transfer it to an oven-proof dish and then top with the mashed potatoes. Cook in an oven that's been preheated to 220°C and cook for around 20 minutes.
Remove the dish from the oven and add the grated cheese to melt under the grill for a couple of minutes. Plate up and serve with your choice of vegetables.
