How to make it

  • In a large pot of salted water, add potatoes - bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain off water and place potatoes back in the hot pan to evaporate some of the excess water. Add milk, butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper - mash until desired consistency. Scoop the mixture into a 2 quart casserole dish lightly coated with nonstick spray. Spray to an even thickness - use damp fingers to form a little lip around the edge to hold in the meat mixture.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high, add beef and onions - cook until the beef has cooked through and the onions soften, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with flour and continue to cook, stirring, for 2 more minutes.
  • Stir in corn, stock, ketchup, Worcestershire, remaining salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat broiler.
  • Scoop the meat mixture over the potatoes and scatter the top with cheese. Place under the broiler until the cheese is bubbly and melted.
