4. Add the Rosemary, Thyme, Garlic, Salt and Pepper, then stir some more. Quickly add your Carrots and Onion and stir a little longer so everything is to a minced consistency.
5. Stir in the Worcestershire Sauce then add the Tomato Puree and stir for few minutes. Pour in the Chicken Stock and cook for 3 more minutes. By this time your potatoes should be ready.
6. Take your potatoes out and strain the water off. Put the potatoes into a medium mixing bowl and mash the potatoes with all the mash ingredients.
