Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs potatoes, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup milk
2 lbs leeks, chopped
1 lb ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped green chili pepper
soy sauce, to taste
1 (8 ounce) package shredded cheddar cheese
6 ounces cooked ham, cut into thin strips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook potatoes until tender but firm, about 15 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes, and transfer to a medium bowl. Mash together with milk.
  • Be sure to remove all grit from leeks by soaking after chopping.
  • Place leeks in a medium saucepan with enough water to cover, and bring to a boil. Cook 10 minutes, or until tender. Drain and set aside.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook and stir the ground beef until browned.
  • Mix in the onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Season with green chile peppers and soy sauce. Continue to cook and stir until vegetables are tender.
  • In a medium baking dish, mix mashed potatoes, leeks, and ground beef mixture. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, and top with ham.
  • Bake 25 minutes at 350F, until bubbly and lightly browned.
