Next, take a frying pan and grease it with vegetable oil, then put a layer of potatoes, a layer of minced meat on it, and put potatoes on top again. Now the dish can be placed in the oven, where it will be baked for about an hour.
If you want to cook something tasty and unusual from minced meat, then it is worth remembering an old dish called potato casserole. Cooked at home, it is incredibly satisfying and delicious, unlike its counterparts in sanatoriums and kindergartens.
Ingredients:
The potatoes should be peeled, washed and chopped, and then boiled. Knead the finished potatoes with butter. As a result, we get a mass that looks like mashed potatoes.
Chop the onion and fry it together with the minced meat in a pan. Next, take a baking sheet, grease it with butter and spread half of the mashed potatoes. Put all the minced meat on top, leveling its surface. Then cover the meat with a layer of the remaining potatoes. The top of the casserole can be greased with sour cream or sprinkled with grated cheese and sent to bake in the oven at 200 degrees. The dish is cooked for no more than 20 minutes. It can be served with sauces, ketchup, vegetables, snacks or pickles. The casserole goes well with all the ingredients.
If you are thinking about how to cook something tasty and unusual from potatoes and minced meat, then we suggest making a roast as one of the options. Do not be confused that instead of meat we will use minced meat, the finished dish turns out to be no less tasty than with the usual cooking method.
Ingredients:
Eat the potatoes and peel them, then cut them into slices. The minced meat must first be salted and pepper added to it. Now you need to fight it off. To do this, we form balls with our hands and throw them with effort into a saucepan or other dish. This will add juiciness and firmness to the meat.
Cut the peeled onion into half rings. Next, take a baking sheet or a large frying pan, grease the bottom with oil and put the onion on the bottom. After that, make a few minced steaks and put them on a layer of onions. Top it all with potatoes.
Mix sour cream or kefir with mayonnaise and fill the roast with this sauce. We send to the oven to cook at 200 degrees.
To cook something tasty and unusual (recipes with photos are given in the article), but at the same time satisfying for lunch or dinner for a family, you can use the recipe of Belarusian "sorcerers".
Ingredients:
Washed peeled potatoes must be grated on a fine grater, the task will be much easier if you have a food processor in your kitchen. The result should be a homogeneous, slightly liquid mass. It should be placed in a colander and allowed to drain. The potato remains a little damp, but at the same time it is easy to form "sorcerers" from it. Next, knead the dough by adding the egg, salt and flour to the potato mass.
Add chopped onion, pepper and salt to the minced meat. A mixed meat product is most suitable for the dish, for example, beef is successfully combined with pork.
Now that all the ingredients are ready, you can start sculpting the "sorcerers". And this is done as follows. Each spoonful of minced meat is rolled into the potato dough so that the meat cannot be seen. "Sorcerers" are the size of a good cutlet. What shape to give the product is up to you. "Sorcerers" can be round, or they can resemble pies.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the blanks until a golden crust forms on the surface. After that, the "sorcerers" must be folded into a baking dish and pour sour cream on top. Next, we send the dish to cook in the oven on the slowest light (for 30 minutes). It is served hot on the table.
As you can see, you can always cook something tasty and unusual from ordinary products. The recipes are simple to execute, but the result exceeds all expectations.
