Casserole / Gratin: Hearty Mushroom-mashed Potato Casserole with Sheep’s Cheese
The perfect casserole / gratin: hearty mushroom-mashed potato casserole with sheep’s cheese recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
For the mashed potatoes:
- 1 kg Potatoes
- 1 middle Onion
- 3 tsp Butter
- 250 ml Milk warm
- Salt, white pepper
- 1 pinch Grated nutmeg
For the sauce:
- 1 pole Leek
- 300 g White mushrooms
- 1,5 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1,5 tbsp Tomato paste
- 200 g Cream
- 300 ml Vegetable broth hot
- Salt, colored pepper from the mill
- 1 pinch Cayenne pepper
- 2 tbsp 6-Kräuter-Mischung tiefgefroren
- 2 Vine tomatoes
For gratinating:
- 150 g Sour cream
- Salt, colored pepper from the mill
- 2 tsp Lemon juice
- 150 g Sheep cheese
- For the puree, peel the potatoes and cook them in boiling water. Peel and finely dice the onion. Heat 1 teaspoon of the butter in a pan, fry the onion cubes in it until they are lightly browned. Put aside.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees (top and bottom heat). For the sauce, clean and wash the leeks. Cut into rings. Brush the mushrooms, cut in half and cut into thin slices. Peel and dice the onion. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the vegetables in it for about 5-7 minutes. Then stir in the tomato paste and roast.
- Deglaze the pan with the cream and vegetable stock. Bring everything to the boil and season with salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Reduce a little over medium heat. Wash the tomatoes, cut out the stalks. Cut the pulp into cubes.
- Drain the cooked potatoes and allow them to evaporate. Coarsely chop, then gradually add the milk, mash the potatoes into a light puree. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Stir in the onion cubes and stir in the remaining butter. Season the sauce again to taste and stir in the herbs.
- Layer the mashed potatoes in a large baking dish, smooth out, then pour the sauce on top. Spread the tomato cubes and sour cream in dabs on top. Sprinkle with the sheep’s cheese, bake in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, until the cheese has melted nicely.
- Serve with a fresh salad of your choice. Tastes great as a main course or as a side dish. We ate the casserole with paprika meatloaf. There was also a green salad with apple and shallot. Links to the recipes in preparation steps 7 and 8. Bon appetit and have fun trying them out :-).
