Remove skillet from heat. Remove bay leaf, and add carrots and peas. Set aside.
Cook potatoes in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender when tested with a fork. Drain and mash roughly.
Whip potatoes with an electric mixer, gradually adding butter and cream in a thin stream, until smooth. Season.
Fill deep-dish crust with meat mixture. Cover with whipped potatoes. Swirl into peaks with the back of a spoon. Set on a baking sheet and bake on the bottom rack for 45 minutes.
