Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 400F (200C).
-
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook gently until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
-
Stir in the beef gravy, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, and herbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for a few minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
-
Spoon the beef mixture into a well-buttered deep casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
-
In a bowl, blend the mashed potatoes with the cream, beaten egg, and half of the melted butter until smooth and creamy.
-
Spread the potato mixture evenly over the beef filling in the casserole dish.
-
Brush the top of the potatoes with the remaining melted butter and sprinkle generously with grated Parmesan cheese.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is piping hot and the potato topping is golden brown.
