Not the fastest recipe to cook, but it is definitely worth trying: two layers of potato and beef mushroom stuffing in between, all dressed up with sour cream sauce – tastes delicious fresh out of the oven. And also reheats well.
I used ground beef for this one, but any ground meat will work as well. Just use the one you like.
If you have a mandoline – use it, otherwise make sure potatoes are sliced in equally thick pieces for even cooking.
Ingredients:
- 1lb ground beef
- 0.75lb mushrooms
- 2.5lb potatoes

- Bunch of dill
- Salt to taste
- Ground black pepper to taste
