Potato & Meat "Joy"
If you think the casserole is greasyexclusively with mayonnaise or egg, then you did not know about the existence of this recipe. This time we will pour pasteurized milk over the potato and meat dish. Thanks to this, the dish will turn out very soft, juicy and tender. Ingredients:
- eight large potatoes
- egg - two pieces
- salt - at your discretion
- a little olive oil (needed for frying)
- 50 grams of butter
- three tablespoons of low-fat sour cream

- 400 grams of boiled beef

Method of preparation:Meat "Joy" is made in different ways: some mash the potatoes, others, on the contrary, use the finished boiled product, cutting it into slices. There are a huge number of recipes, as well as opinions, and each housewife chooses the one that she likes the most. We hope that you will like the option we offer. Make a thin puree from pre-peeled and already boiled potatoes. Then beat the following products in a separate bowl: sour cream, two eggs and a piece of butter. Pour the resulting mixture into the potatoes and stir several times until smooth. Cut the boiled meat into thin strips and put it in a saucepan. Add olive oil and fry, remembering to stir. Now peel the onion and cut it into small cubes, then combine with beef. When the vegetable becomes translucent, add flour and pasteurized milk. We do not recommend oversalting the dish - whoever wants to do it themselves. Season the onion and beef mixture with spices, you can add basil. Mix all the ingredients well, cover them with a lid and keep on low heat for seven minutes. When the mass thickens a little, it’s time to remove it from the stove. Grease the baking sheet with the rest of the oil, put half of the puree and lightly sprinkle it with finely grated cheese. The next layer consists of beef fried with onions and cheese again. For the final stage, you will need a special pastry bag: fill it with potatoes and squeeze them out in patterns, grease the dish with pasteurized milk on top and put it in the oven. Cooking temperature is 180 degrees. Now you can rest for half an hour, and then call everyone to the table. Enjoy your meal!

If the recipe specifies champignons, this does not mean that you cannot buy another variety. A very appetizing casserole is made from oyster mushrooms and honey mushrooms. Now heat the frying pan, then pour some oil into it and put the chicken. Sprinkle the product with salt and your favorite spices, cook it, regularly turning it with a spatula, until the meat changes color. Then add the mushrooms and onion and keep everything on the stove for no longer than six minutes. Cut the potatoes into thin circles and put them in the prepared form. To prevent the casserole from burning on the bottom, treat the bottom and inner edges of the dish with oil. Put the onion and mushroom filling with chicken on top of the first layer and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. The last "floor" of the product consists of the remaining potatoes. To make the dish brown and covered with an appetizing crust, prepare a mixture - beat eggs with lightly salted milk - and pour it over your creation. Put the future casserole in the oven, preheated to 190 degrees. After half an hour, take it out, grate the cheese and sprinkle it over the product, then put it back in the oven.
