Time 1h10m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 lb red potatoes (or other waxy potato)
1 lb red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter, divided
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup beef broth or 1 cup chicken broth
salt
1/2 lb roast beef or 1/2 lb pot roast, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1/2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Place the potatoes in a small pot and cover with cold water.
  • Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a knife can slip into potato with just slight resistance.
  • Remove from the water and drain.
  • Cool potatoes for 5 minutes; cut into 1/4 inch thick slices.
  • Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon of the butter to a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned, about 25 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the flour onto the onions and cook for 2 minutes more, stirring occasionally.
  • Pour in the broth and add a sprinkling of salt.
  • Bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to dislodge any browned bits. Remove pot from the heat.
  • Butter a small casserole dish, about 8" square.
  • Shingle all the potato slices over the entire bottom so they overlap slightly.
  • Lay the slices of meat in a single layer on top of the potatoes.
  • Dump the onion mixture on top and spread it out.
  • Drizzle on the red wine vinegar and sprinkle on the bread crumbs.
  • Melt the rest of the butter in a pot; pour it on top of the breadcrumbs.
  • Place in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until browned and bubbling.
  • Season with salt and plenty of pepper, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve.
