In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon.
Add the onion, garlic, and carrots to the skillet, and cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the frozen peas, beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
While the meat mixture is simmering, prepare your mashed potatoes. You can use leftover mashed potatoes or make them from scratch.
Once the meat mixture is ready, transfer it to a baking dish.
Spoon the mashed potatoes over the top of the meat mixture, using a potato masher to create a slightly rough surface.
Cut the butter into small pieces and scatter them over the top of the mashed potatoes.
Bake the Shepherd's Pie for 25-30 minutes, or until the mashed potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
