Sauté beef, onion, celery and garlic until done. Drain the beef mixture. Make gravy with the beef base and water and whisk in enough flour to thicken. When gravy comes to a boil, add the beef mixture. Cook and drain potatoes and mash with butter. Blanch carrots (cook briefly in boiling water) then add to beef mixture. Place beef mixture in 2-qt. casserole or baking pan. Spoon mashed potatoes on top of beef; bake 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Top with cheese and let sit until cheese is melted about 5 minutes
