How to Make Italian-Style Beef & Potato Casserole
(Serves 8)
- 1½ lbs (675g) of ground beef
- 1 medium onion
- 1 stalk of celery
- 2 medium carrots
- 3 medium cloves of garlic
- 2 6oz (175ml) tins of tomato paste
- 18oz (525ml) of water
- 1 tsp of dried basil
- 1 tsp of dried oregano
- 1 tsp of paprika
- ¼ tsp of black pepper
- 3 lb (1350g) of potatoes
- 1 cup (4oz / 120g) of shredded cheese
- 1 cup (4oz / 120g) of breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp mixed herbs
- ½ tsp of garlic powder
- 4 tbsp (60g) of Parmesan
Directions:
- You will require a food processor, grinder or a grater, a potato peeler, a sturdy knife, a slotted spoon, a large skillet or frying pan, a large pot and a 9x13” (225x325mm) casserole dish.
- If you are using a food processor or grinder/blender, cut the carrots, celery, onion and garlic into medium to small pieces and puree them all together. Otherwise, grate the carrots and the celery. Finely dice the onion and thinly slice the garlic. Combine these ingredients together in a bowl and set on one side.
