A winning family recipe using simple ingredients – potatoes, onions and beef mince! The magic happens when you pour a creamy sauce made with Knorr Savoury Mince Dry Cook-in-Sauce over the layers to create a deliciously different potato bake! 

Tips

To add more goodness to your bake, don't peel the potatoes before you parboil them. Potato skins are rich in fibre! A tip for reducing the amount of fat in this dish: after you've cooked the mince and onions, tip them into a sieve set over your sink, drain away excess oil, then return them to the pan. 

Ingredients
  • 8 medium potatoes, peeled
  • 1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
  • 15 ml (1 Tbsp) vegetable oil
  • 400 g lean beef mince
  • 1 x 48 gram sachet Knorr Savoury Mince Dry Cook-in-Sauce
  • 250 ml (1 cup) cream
  • 350 ml water
Cooking Method
  1. Preheat oven to 180°C.

  2. Cover the potatoes with boiling water and parboil them for about 7 minutes, or until the outsides are beginning to soften. Drain well and set aside to cool.

  3. Heat the oil in a pan and gently fry the onion until soft. Add the beef mince and fry until well browned.

  4. Cut the parboiled potatoes into slices, and place a layer into the bottom of a greased ovenproof dish. Top with a layer of mince, and then another layer of potatoes.

  5. Continue to build the layers and finish with a potato layer.

  6. Empty the contents of the sachet of Knorr Savoury Mince Dry Cook-in-Sauce into a jug, add the cream and water and mix well.

  7. Pour the sauce evenly over the layers and bake at 180°C for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft and golden brown on top.
