I have made this recipe twice and have enjoyed it. I am posting this to add to my Casserole Cookbook. Hope you enjoy it too. I also like to add 1/4 teaspoon of allspice Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 green bell pepper, chopped |
1 onion, chopped |
1 carrot, shredded |
2 celery ribs, chopped |
1/2 tablespoon paprika |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1 pinch ground cinnamon (i add 1/4 teaspoon) |
1 pinch ground cloves (i add 1/4 teaspoon) |
1/4 cup water |
1/8 cup red wine |
1 beef bouillon cube |
2 tablespoons half-and-half |
2 potatoes, peeled and sliced (i add four potatoes) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a casserole dish.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the beef until evenly brown. Remove beef from skillet, reserving juices, and set aside. Mix in the olive oil, and saute the green pepper, onion, carrot, and celery until tender.
3. Return beef to the skillet, and season with paprika, salt, black pepper, red pepper, cinnamon, and cloves. Stir in the water and red wine until heated through. Dissolve the beef bouillon cube into the mixture. Remove skillet from heat, and mix in the half-and-half.
4. Layer the bottom of the prepared casserole dish with enough potato slices to cover. ( I slice very thinly) Place the beef and vegetable mixture over the potatoes, and top with remaining potatoes.
5. Cook, covered, 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the potatoes are tender.
