Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pound ground lamb or beef
  • 2 large carrots, diced
  • 2 stalks celery, diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 4 cups beef broth

  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
  2. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, being careful not to burn it.

  6. Cover and let simmer for 20 minutes, allowing flavors to meld together.
  7. After simmering, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  8. To serve, ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with a generous scoop of mashed potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley.
