| 1 kg | potato |
| 400 g | mixed ground meat |
| 1 | onion |
| 1 clove | garlic |
| 250 ml | heavy cream |
| 150 ml | whole milk |
| ¼ tsp | ground nutmeg |
| 1 tsp | tomato paste |
| salt | |
| pepper | |
| olive oil (for frying) | |
| unsalted butter (for greasing) |
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. Finely dice the onion and garlic. Set aside. Peel potatoes and slice very thinly. Combine potato slices with the heavy cream, milk, nutmeg, and a sprinkle of salt in a saucepan and simmer over medium-low heat until the mixture thickens, approx. 7 min.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan set over medium heat and fry ground meat until golden, approx. 5 min. Add the onion and garlic and continue to sauté for approx. another 5 min. Stir in the tomato paste and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Grease a baking dish with butter. Start with a layer of potato, then add all the ground meat, and finish with another layer of potato. Place the dish in the oven and bake at 180°C/350°F for approx. 40 – 45 min. or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it rest for approx. 5 – 10 min. before serving. Enjoy!
