Mexican Potato Casserole
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 medium onion, diced finely
4 large potatoes, thinly sliced
1 C. corn kernels
1 packet of taco seasoning
2 C. of grated mozzarella cheese
1 C. salsa
Salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Thinly slice your potatoes and add to a large pot of salted boiling water for around 10 minutes to soften. Add a T. of oil to a large, heated frying pan. Fry onion until soft, before adding the mince. Once the mince is browned, stir in corn, then add taco seasoning and allow to simmer for 10 to 15 minutes (follow instructions on the taco seasoning). Stir through salsa until well combined. Layer softened potato slices along the bottom of a large casserole or baking dish and season with salt and pepper. Add a layer of mozzarella cheese over the potatoes. Add the taco and salsa mince mixture on top. Add a layer of mozzarella cheese on top. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for around 35 minutes. Then remove foil, sprinkle with chopped shallots and bake for a further 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is browned. Serve with guacamole and sour cream, or with a side salad. Enjoy!
