The fourth layer of the casserole will again be potatoes.
Then the remaining minced meat. We also distribute it evenly over the entire surface of the casserole.
Now you need to prepare the filling for the potato casserole. In a deep bowl, beat 2 eggs and milk. Salt a little, you can season with ground pepper.
Carefully, so that the filling penetrates evenly into the casserole, helping with a fork, pour the whipped mass into the mold.
Coat the top well with mayonnaise. If you like it, you can add more mayonnaise.
Place the potato casserole with minced meat (without sprinkling cheese) in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 1 hour.
During this time it should be completely baked.
5 minutes before the end of time, remove the casserole dish from the oven and sprinkle the surface with cheese grated on a coarse grater.
Put it back in the oven. When the cheese melts and browns a little, the casserole of potatoes and minced meat is ready.

The win-win combination of potatoes and meat, which served as the basis for the casserole, will never disappoint the hostess. Whether the potatoes are raw or boiled is involved in the recipe - it doesn’t matter. The qualifications of a home chef don't matter either. Let's take a closer look at how to prepare it with minced meat. A step-by-step recipe with photographs will help you master the simple dish.
and fried minced meat
First, let's look at the traditional way of preparing this famous dish. It will include mashed potatoes. The taste will remind many of the same casseroles that are usually served in public catering. To prepare a homemade version, take the following ingredients:
- 1 kg of fresh peeled potatoes for mashing;
- large onion - 1 piece;
- minced meat consisting of half pork and beef - 400 g;
- chicken egg - 1 piece;
- garlic - 2 cloves;
- butter - 40 grams;
- vegetable oil - 4 tbsp. spoons;
- salt;
- Bay leaf;
- ground black pepper to taste.
Preparing puree
In order for the mashed potatoes to cook faster, before putting them in the pan, cut the ingredient into pieces. Immediately add garlic, bay leaf and salt. There is no need to peel the garlic cloves. When the potatoes boil, you need to remove the foam. After the knife, which has entered one of the potatoes without interference, signals us that they are completely ready, turn off the heat and remove the garlic from the pan. They did their job, imparted taste and aroma, and in the future, potato casserole will do without these components.
Let's drain the water from the pan, but not all of it. We will need some of the liquid (about the size of a glass) to make the puree more fluffy. Crush the potatoes and add butter. If desired, the mixture can be lightly beaten with a blender.
Frying minced meat
The casserole with minced meat and potatoes in the oven, the recipe for which we offer you, will not turn out so tasty if the minced meat is not fried. Cut a large onion into half rings and fry in a frying pan until transparent and slightly golden brown. Add the minced meat, salt, pepper and fry only slightly; there is no need to bring it to full readiness. It is enough that the onions are completely fried. The taste of fried onions has never spoiled culinary dishes.
Place ingredients in baking dish
Here we are reaching the finish line. Potato casserole with minced meat, the recipe for which we are mastering, is almost ready to go into the oven. All that remains is to take a baking container, grease it thoroughly with melted butter and place the components in the required sequence. By the way, it's time to turn on the oven. After all, while we are laying the layers of the future casserole, the temperature in the oven should heat up to 180 degrees.
We will place only half of the finished mashed potatoes at the very bottom of the mold, then thoroughly level the mass with a spoon. The next step is to lay out the fried minced meat. The meat layer in our casserole will be in a single copy, so for the first half of the mashed potatoes we put all the minced meat with fried onions into the pan from the frying pan. Then cover the meat mass with the rest of the puree and smooth it out again. In order for the potato casserole with minced meat in the oven to turn out golden brown, spread the beaten egg over the surface of the dish. Now you can use a fork to form beautiful patterns. Most likely, the oven is already languishing, waiting. Place our dish in it until fully cooked for 30 minutes. If the casserole is browned a little earlier, the total cooking time can be reduced.
Potato casserole with minced meat: a quick recipe
How we love to prepare dishes that do not take up our precious time. For those who especially value every minute, we offer another, alternative version of this dish. This time, potato casserole with minced meat in the oven will do without mashed potatoes and pre-frying the ingredients. Place the ingredients on a baking sheet raw. To prepare we will need:
Mix the ingredients and prepare potato chips
Most recipes for making potato casserole with minced meat imply that the housewife already has a ready-made semi-finished meat product on the table. We arm ourselves with a blender, which will speed up the process even more. First, put the minced meat in a bowl, add salt and mix with tomato paste. We also send chopped onion and garlic there and pepper. Mix everything well. Then we process the potatoes and chop them into chips using a special grater knife and immediately add salt. In the absence of such a device, you can use a regular grater with a large nozzle.
Armed with foil
Potato casserole with minced meat in the oven will not stick to the bottom of the dish during cooking if the bottom of the pan is covered with food foil. Grease a layer of foil with sunflower oil. We will divide the potato chips, just like in the first recipe, into two equal parts. We put half of it in then make a layer of minced meat. The third layer will again be potatoes. Now grate the cheese on a coarse grater and cover the entire surface of the second potato layer with it. If the amount of cheese indicated in the recipe is not enough, feel free to increase the proportion.
The oven should also already be preheated. Considering that the dish contains raw ingredients, we increase the total baking time to 50 minutes. This time is enough for both the minced meat and the potatoes to cook completely. The cheese on top of the dish forms a golden brown crust, and the smell will spread invitingly throughout the apartment. While the dish is being prepared, the hostess can safely do some other important things.
We believe that this dish is easy to make and extremely tasty, no matter what variations it is executed in, it will not disappoint you. Bon appetit!
