Mix in wine; cook 3 minutes to reduce liquid. Mix in gravy, peas and thyme; season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir about 2 minutes until heated through. To serve, spoon beef mixture onto four serving plates, dividing equally. Slice potatoes 1/3-inch thick. Fan out one sliced potato on each serving.
