Instructions:
In a pot of cold, salted water, bring potatoes to boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered, for about 20 minutes or until very tender. Drain well. Mash while adding milk; stir in butter, parsley and chives (if using). Season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside. Meanwhile, in shallow saucepan, brown veal over high heat. Reduce heat to medium; add garlic, onion, thyme and pepper. Cook, stirring for about 5 minutes or until onion is softened. Sprinkle with flour; cook, stirring for 1 minute. Pour in stock, ketchup and mustard; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring often, for about 5 minutes or until thickened. Stir in vegetables; season to taste with salt. Spread into lightly greased 11 x 7-inch (2.5L) glass baking dish or casserole; let cool slightly. Pipe or spread potatoes on top of veal. Bake in 400°F (200°C) oven for about 20 minutes or until bubbling hot and potatoes are golden. Broil for 2 minutes, if desired.
