Ingredients:  
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, diced
3 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
1 rib celery, diced
1/2 pound cremini mushrooms, quartered
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, mushrooms, garlic, half of the salt, and oregano. Cook until vegetables are tender, about ten minutes. Stir in tomato paste and cook until the mushrooms are soft and the tomato paste has turned brick red, about 8 more minutes. Stir in beef, the broth, the remaining salt, the Worcestershire, and some pepper. Cook until meat is no longer pink, about 3 minutes.

Transfer the meat and vegetables to a 2-quart casserole dish and spread mashed potatoes over the top, leaving 1/4 inch border around the edge. Sprinkle the top with cheese and dot with the remaining tablespoon of butter. Bake until potatoes are brown and the juices bubble around the edge, about 40 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
