Peel and cut the potatoes into large chunks. Add them to a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrots, and garlic, sautΓ©ing until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the ground beef or turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease if necessary.
Stir in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and broth. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, then add the frozen peas. Cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.
Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
When the potatoes are tender, drain and return them to the pot. Add the butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy.
Spread the meat and vegetable mixture evenly into the bottom of a greased 9-inch pie dish or casserole dish.
Spread the mashed potatoes over the meat layer, smoothing with a spatula to cover completely. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Allow the pie to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Mashed Potato Pie!
