Description
Casserole with ground meat is a simple and very quick dish that can also be incredibly delicious. You just need to know a couple of secrets. Mix nutmeg into the mashed potatoes for aroma, add grated cheese and an egg for a creamy texture — that’s tip number one. Sauté the ground meat with onions and carrots, and mix it with chopped herbs and fresh peas to create a very juicy and pleasant filling for the casserole, which is tip number two. Finally, before baking, sprinkle the surface with grated cheese — this will give the casserole a nice golden crust.

Step by Step guide
Step 1
Peel the potatoes, and if they are large, cut them into 2–4 pieces. Cover with water and boil until cooked through.
Step 10
Spread the puree on top and smooth it out. Sprinkle with the remaining grated cheese and place in the oven preheated to 392°F for 20–25 minutes.
Step 2
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain the water, add butter, and mash them into a puree. Season with salt and add nutmeg to taste, along with 100 grams of grated cheese and an egg. Mix well.
Step 3
Finely dice the onion and cut the carrot into cubes about 1 cm on each side.
Step 4
In a skillet, heat vegetable oil and sauté the onion until golden brown.
Step 5
Add the carrot to the onion and sauté, stirring, for another 5 minutes.
Step 6
Add the minced meat to the skillet and sauté, stirring, until the meat changes color completely.
Step 7
Add the canned tomatoes to the skillet, stir, and simmer until all the liquid has evaporated, about 10–15 minutes.
Step 8
Finally, season the filling with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and stir in the green peas and chopped parsley.
Step 9
Place the filling in a baking dish.
