Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 F. Lightly grease a 2 quart casserole or 9-inch deep dish pie plate.
Select Browning and add oil to pressure cooking pot. When hot, add the onion and carrots and saute until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute an additional minute. Add ground meat and brown, breaking the meat apart as it cooks. Drain grease from the meat.
Add beef stock, tomato paste, salt and pepper to beef mixture in pressure cooking pot. Cover and lock lid in place. Select High Pressure and 3 minutes cook time. When timer beeps, turn off and use a quick pressure release.
Combine the cornstarch and water, whisking until smooth. Add cornstarch mixture to the pressure cooking pot. Select Simmer and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. After sauce thickens, taste, adjust seasoning if necessary. Add the parsley, corn and peas to the meat mixture. Pour meat mixture into the bottom of prepared baking dish or pie plate.
Rinse out pressure cooking pot. Place potatoes into a steamer basket or on metal trivet in the pressure cooking pot. Add 1 cup water. Cover and lock lid in place. Select High Pressure and 5 minutes cook time. When timer beeps, turn off and use a quick pressure release.
Drain potatoes. Put drained potatoes into a mixing bowl and mash with a potato masher. Stir in milk, butter, salt and pepper, and grated cheese.
Spread mashed potatoes evenly over the meat mixture right to the edges. If desired, use a pastry bag with a large star tip to create a decorative topping with the mashed potatoes.
Bake in preheated oven 30 to 35 minutes until golden brown. Serve hot.
