Ingredients
2 pounds medium
Yukon gold potatoes
Kosher Salt
3/4 cup heavy cream
6
tablespoons unsalted butter
Freshly ground white
pepper
10 allspice berries
1 tablespoon fennel
seeds
1
1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns
2 tablespoons
extra-virgin olive oil
2 pounds ground beef
1 medium carrot, finely
chopped
1 medium celery rib,
finely chopped
1 medium red onion,
finely chopped
Kosher Salt
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup water
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400°.
In a large saucepan, cover the potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Add a
generous pinch of salt and simmer over medium heat until tender, about 25
minutes.
Meanwhile, in a spice
grinder, combine the allspice berries, fennel seeds, and black peppercorns;
grind into a fine powder. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil until
shimmering. Add the ground beef, ground spices, and a generous pinch of salt.
Cook over medium-high, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until just
starting to brown, about 6 minutes.
Add the carrot, celery,
onion, and a generous pinch of salt to the skillet. Cook, stirring
occasionally, until the beef is cooked through and the vegetables are softened,
10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the wine and cook until evaporated, about 2 minutes.
Stir in the water and cook, stirring occasionally, until the water is nearly
evaporated, about 7 minutes. Season the filling with salt, then scrape into a
9-by-13-inch baking dish.
Drain the potatoes well
and, using a paring knife, peel off the skins. In the same saucepan, melt the
butter in the heavy cream over medium-low heat. Pass the peeled potatoes
through a ricer or food mill into the saucepan. Season generously with salt and
white pepper. Dollop the potatoes on the beef filling in the baking dish, then
spread in an even layer. Bake for about 20 minutes, until lightly browned on
top. Let stand for 5 minutes, then serve.
