# Étapes de préparation:

01 - Heat oil or butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add ground lamb or beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 7 to 10 minutes. Drain excess fat, reserving approximately 2 tablespoons in the pan. Set the cooked meat aside.
02 - Add onion and carrot to the pan with the reserved fat. Cook over medium heat, stirring regularly, until vegetables are softened, approximately 5 to 7 minutes.
03 - Add chopped garlic and tomato paste to the vegetables. Stir to combine, then sprinkle the flour over the mixture. Mix thoroughly and cook for 1 minute, allowing the flour to absorb.
04 - Pour in beef broth and stir, scraping the bottom of the pan. Return the cooked meat to the pan along with Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves. Bring mixture to a simmer.
05 - Reduce heat slightly and simmer until sauce has thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove bay leaves and discard.
06 - Stir peas into the meat mixture. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Spoon the hot filling over mashed potatoes and serve immediately.
