The ingredients for my potato and minced meat casserole
Simple, hearty and delicious is the best way to describe my potato and minced meat casserole. The casserole combines potatoes and minced meat with a creamy sauce and is perfect for anyone who likes uncomplicated home cooking. And here are the ingredients:
- potatoes: I prefer to use mainly waxy potatoes, but you can also use a floury variety as an alternative. However, I advise against waxy ones for this dish because they would not become soft in the time specified.
- minced meat: Here I use lean, organic ground beef.
- Onion and Garlic: The duo provides a delicious seasoning.
- Cream, vegetable broth and tomato paste: The three ingredients together form the basis for the creamy sauce.
- Grated cheese: Which variety you choose is purely a matter of taste. I like Gouda, Emmental or a mixed gratin cheese for gratinating.
- Spices: Here I use salt, pepper and Italian herbs from the frozen food compartment. These contain parsley, oregano, basil and thyme.

- The Thicken the sauce. So that the sauce is not runny after baking, I always stir a little flour into the minced meat sauce. This binds the liquid and ensures a creamy consistency.
- Pre-cook potatoes in the sauce. I pre-cook the potato slices in the minced meat sauce for 5 minutes. This way they cook evenly and the casserole is ready quicker.
- Slice potatoes thinly. I cut my potatoes into very thin slices with the vegetable slicer. This way they absorb the full flavor of the sauce and cook faster.
