Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven 400 degrees
Boil the potatoes until done, about 20 minutes, and mash them.
Cook the onions in 1 T of the butter and 1 T. oil until soft. Add the meat and cook until lightly brown. Stir in the stock, ketchup, succotash, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt & pepper.
Beat the remaining melted butter and the milk into the potatoes. Put the meat in a greased ovenproof dish, cover with potato and ripple the top with a fork.
Bake for 30 minutes or until the top is crusty and golden.
Add a layer of sweet corn or baked beans (preferably Heinz or Bachelor’s Baked Beans from the UK) between the meat and potato layer for a bit of interest.
