Ground Beef Casserole Potatoes

Print Recipe

Hearty layers of potatoes, beef, and cheese baked with creamy sauce for classic family comfort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.8 kg russet potatoes, peeled and sliced
  • 450 g ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 295 g can cream of chicken soup
  • 354 ml can evaporated milk
  • 120 ml whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 400 g cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C. In a skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef with diced onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until the beef is no longer pink. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together cream of chicken soup, evaporated milk, whole milk, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and onion powder until smooth.
  3. Lightly grease a 23 x 33 cm ovenproof baking dish. Arrange one third of the sliced potatoes to cover the bottom. Top with one third of the cooked beef mixture, followed by 100 g shredded cheese. Lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Repeat these layers two more times.
  4. Evenly pour the prepared cream sauce over the entire casserole.
  5. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes.
  6. Remove foil. Check potatoes for tenderness. Sprinkle remaining shredded cheese evenly on top. Bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes, until cheese is melted.
  7. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 15 minutes to allow the casserole to set before portioning and serving.

Notes

For uniform cooking, slice potatoes to an even thickness. Allowing the dish to rest before serving improves texture and structure.
