Chef's Notes
Treat every ingredient with the respect of a crowned head of state. Brown that beef with passion and make sure your vegetable soup is fully integrated into the mix before the potatoes go on.
Pro Tip
When applying the cooking spray, remember the ancient wisdom: measure with your heart. A well-greased dish ensures your portions slide out like royalty stepping onto a red carpet.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Failing to drain the rendered beef fat results in a greasy, soggy bottom layer that will slide your beautiful mashed potato peak right off the side in a tragic culinary avalanche.
