Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 lb russet potatoes, peeled and sliced in 1/4 inch rounds (no thicker or baking time will be affected)
1 1/2 lb ground beef
1 onion, chopped
olive oil to coat pan
2 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped
salt and pepper, to taste
**sauce***
4 eggs
1 c yogurt or sourcream (i used sourcream)
2 c milk
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

1. In a fry pan add the onions and garlic in olive oil and cook till the onions are limp. Add the ground beef, salt and pepper. Continue to cook through until meat is browned. Remove from stove and set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat the bottom of a 13X9 casserole dish with olive oil. Cover the bottom with two layers of the sliced potatoes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. (This does need alot of salt and pepper)
3. Spoon on the meat mixture over the potatoes. Add another double layer of the potatoe slices. (do not use more than 4 pds of potatoes total)
4. Sauce: Mix together the eggs, sourcream, milk, salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the top of the casserole, stopping just before it covers the top layer, you want the top to brown nicely. Bake 1 hour or until potatoes are tender. Let cool down a few minutes and then serve. *** I served this with a corn casserole and a green salad and bread.
