Directions

Step 1

Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender about 20 minutes. Drain and mash with milk and butter. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 3

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; saute until translucent. Add ground beef; cook breaking up lumps with a wooden spoon until browned 5 to 7 minutes. Add sherry; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low.

Step 4

Season the beef mixture with salt and pepper and stir in Worcestershire sauce. Sprinkle in flour and mix well until mixture is thick and clings together 1 to 2 minutes more.

Step 5

Pour beef mixture into the bottom of a casserole dish. Spread mashed potatoes evenly across the top. Season with salt and pepper. Scatter 1/2 cup plus 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese on top. Press a fork into the edges of the casserole to make a pattern.

Step 6

Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until piping hot and cheese is melted down about 30 minutes.
