Grated potatoes with minced meat in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake grated potatoes with minced meat in the oven? Prepare your food. Any type of potato will do. I have turkey/pork minced meat, already with onions and garlic. You can use minced meat from any meat, both store-bought and home-made. Prepare a baking dish, I have a ceramic one measuring 20 by 20 centimeters. Turn on the oven to preheat to 180 degrees.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash and peel the potatoes. Grate the potatoes into a deep bowl using a coarse grater; drain the liquid that forms. To prevent the potatoes from darkening, you can immediately add a spoonful of sour cream to it.

3. STEP 3

   

   Grate the selected cheese on a coarse grater, set aside 30 grams, and add the rest to the grated potatoes. Add 2 broken eggs, salt to the potatoes and mix until the ingredients are combined.

4. STEP 4

   

   Grease the selected baking dish with vegetable oil and lay out half of the potato and cheese mixture. Distribute the mixture evenly over the bottom of the mold.

5. STEP 5

   

   Peel and chop the onion and garlic in any way, but the finer the better. Add them to the minced meat. Add salt and knead it well until smooth. Place the minced meat evenly on top of the potato layer.

6. STEP 6

   

   Spread the second part of the potato-cheese mixture evenly over the minced meat.

7. STEP 7

   

   Break the remaining egg into a bowl, add sour cream and reserved cheese. Mix the ingredients evenly and place/pour the mixture on top of the top layer of potatoes. Evenly distribute the mixture with cheese. Place the casserole dish in a preheated oven for 35-40 minutes. The time will depend on the power of your oven and the chosen form - the leaner the casserole is, the longer it will take to cook.

8. STEP 8

   

   Carefully remove the finished casserole from the oven. Cut it into portions and serve with fresh vegetables and herbs. Bon appetit!

I cooked grated potatoes with minced meat in the oven for dinner. A wonderful hearty dish. It’s not difficult to prepare, the most labor-intensive part is grating the potatoes (although you can use kitchen gadgets to help or involve children in the process, like me). I was pleased with the result. Thanks for the recipe!

It will be better if you pre-cook the minced meat and onions
