  • 100 g Processed cheese
  • 2 teaspoon Beef broth
  • 2 teaspoon Sweet paprika powder
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 5 Discs Cheese
  • 5 Discs Grated cheese

Instructions
 

  • I have already tried different types of vegetables for this casserole - but the combination of peas / carrots with cheese sauce tastes best 🙂
  • Start by peeling the potatoes, chopping them into cubes, rinsing them once under running water and then boiling them until al dente.
  • The roots (carrots) are also peeled and cut into slices. Then cook until al dente, about 10 minutes.
  • Please add the frozen peas to the roots for the last 5 minutes and cook them with them.
  • Now peel the onion and garlic clove and chop very finely.
  • Melt the teaspoon of butter in a pan and add the minced meat. Now season with salt, paprika powder and pepper. After 3 minutes add the onion and garlic cubes and fry everything until crumbly. Put the pan to one side.
  • Take a small saucepan and melt the butter in it. Now add the flour while stirring with a whisk. Stir until no more flour can be seen. Now the milk is poured in in batches, stirring continuously! Note: if the sauce is somehow too thick, just pour in a little more milk.
  • Take the pot off the heat briefly and stir in the processed cheese and spices. Preheat the oven top / bottom heating to 200 degrees.
  • Put the minced meat in a baking dish, 1st layer
  • 2. Layer the peas and roots on top
  • 3 Layer the potato cubes on top.
  • Now pour the cheese sauce evenly over the casserole.
  • Spread either slices of cheese or grated cheese on the casserole.
  • Upper / lower heating at 200 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes on the middle rail I wish you a good appetite
