BEST EVER BEEF AND POTATOES CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Slice potatoes into medium rounds.
• Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry potato rounds until starting to turn brown, about 5 minutes per batch. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook onion and garlic in the hot oil until onion turns translucent, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook and stir until browned and no pink remains, 5 to 7 minutes more. Drain the pan.
• Combine beef mixture and cream of chicken soup in a large bowl. Add mild Cheddar cheese and stir until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
• Combine panko bread crumbs with 1/3 of the Irish Cheddar cheese and melted butter.
• Spray a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray and spread 1/2 of the potatoes in the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the Irish Cheddar cheese. Cover with 1/2 of the beef mixture. Repeat with remaining potatoes, Irish Cheddar, and beef mixture. Top with panko mixture.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until browned and bubbly, about 30 minutes.

CORNED BEEF HASH BROWN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with oil. Fill the bottom of the dish with one layer of the potatoes (about 4 cups). Drizzle the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Bake until hot and crisp, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and red and green peppers. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened and started to brown, about 6 minutes. Add the corned beef, and cook for 2 minutes more. Let cool.
• Whisk together the eggs, milk, mustard, hot sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper in a large bowl.
• Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the Cheddar over the potatoes in the casserole dish. Layer the vegetable-beef mixture over the Cheddar. Pour the egg mixture into the dish and top with the remaining cup of Cheddar. (The casserole can be assembled up to this point and refrigerated overnight. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.)
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Top the casserole with the remaining potatoes (about 2 cups). Bake until the egg mixture is set and the top is lightly golden brown, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

SIMPLE BUT HEARTY BEEF AND MUSHROOM CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Dice meat into 1 inch cubes, trimming off any excess fat.
• In a heavy saucepan (I use a cast-iron pan), heat olive oil and fry half the onion until soft and starting to colour, 3-4 minutes.
• Add beef and seal on all sides, until no red is visible.
• Add the rest of the onion and the carrot, and continue frying for another 5 mins, until all the onion has softened.
• Add the boiling water -- there should be enough to cover the meat to a depth of 1-2 cm.
• Add potato, celery, tomato paste, Vegemite or stock cube, bay leaf and pepper (don't add salt until the end, as the sauce reduces).
• Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, on very low heat for 1.5 - 2 hours (alternatively, use a crockpot).
• Add mushrooms, and simmer for another 30-45 minutes.
• If the sauce is not quite thick enough for your taste, break up some of the potato pieces with a fork, and continue to simmer uncovered, until the sauce has reduced to the desired consistency (10-15 mins is usually plenty).
• Check for seasoning, and garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired.
