"This is an adaptation of Recipe #39401 ... I like to think I've changed it enough to warrant a recipe page for it for other people to enjoy :-) It's a very easy and budget-friendly dish to serve, and it's one of the only meals I serve where there are no leftovers for breakfast the next day! The potatoes can be peeled, or left with the skin on, I personally prefer them with the skin on :-)."

 

• Ready In: 50mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 500 g beef mince (ground beef)
• 4 medium potatoes
• 1 large onion
• 3 garlic cloves, sliced and diced
• 1 (420 g) can condensed cream of chicken soup
• 1 (420 g) can condensed beef and vegetable soup
• 1 cup grated tasty cheese
• 1⁄2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 1 beef stock, cube

directions

1. Chop the potatoes into 1inch pieces and boil in salted water until perfectly cooked.
2. Chop the onion into chunks and cook for a couple of minutes along with the garlic, add the mince and salt-and-pepper and beefstock cube - Stir frequently until the mince is cooked.
3. While the potatoes are boiling and the mince is cooking, mix the two soups together in a microwaveable bowl and microwave on high (occasionally mixing) until hot - Do not dilute (alternatively, if you have a large enough frying-pan, you can pour the soups in with the mince when the mince is cooked and simmer for 5 or so minutes and then add the potatoes and pour into the casserole dish).
4. When the potatoes and mince and soups are all ready, mix it ALL together and pour into a casserole dish.
5. Cover the top with the grated cheese and pop into the oven at 200 degrees Celcius for 10-15minutes (until the cheese is ~just~ going on that browning stage).
6. When the cheese is going on brown, sprinkle with the breadcrumbs and return to the oven for another approximate 5 minutes.
7. Serve and enjoy :-).
