Last night’s dinner.\u00a0 Went over rather well, especially when my partner’s reaction to the picture of the dish was twitchy and involved commentary about how the “potato puffs” looked like fungal growths.<\/p>\n
<strong>Beef Mix:<\/strong><\/p>\n
1 lb ground beef<\/p>\n
1\/2 c chopped onion (I used around a cup)<\/p>\n
1\/2 c chopped green pepper (I used a whole pepper, probably came out to around a cup)<\/p>\n
1\/2 c chopped celery<\/p>\n
1 pkg frozen peas, partially thawed (The recipe called for 10 oz, the package I used was 14)<\/p>\n
1 T flour<\/p>\n
1 tsp chili powder (I used a tsp and a half)<\/p>\n
1 tsp salt<\/p>\n
1\/8 tsp pepper<\/p>\n
1\/2 c catsup<\/p>\n
1 c tomato juice (since we get the small set for drinking cans, this ended up being 11 oz)<\/p>\n
1 T Worcestershire sauce<\/p>\n
<strong>Potato Puffs:<\/strong><\/p>\n
1 1\/2 c mashed potatos<\/p>\n
1 egg, beaten<\/p>\n
1\/2 tsp salt<\/p>\n
1 tsp grated onion<\/p>\n
1 T parsley flakes<\/p>\n
1\/3 c dry bread crumbs<\/p>\n
1\/4 c flour<\/p>\n
1\/2 tsp baking powder<\/p>\n
Preheat oven to 375.<\/p>\n
In large skillet, over medium heat, slowly brown beef, leaving it in large chunks.\u00a0 Add onion, green pepper, and celery – cook, stirring until it is aptly cooked for your tastes.\u00a0 Add peas.\u00a0 Blend flour with chili powder, salt, and pepper – quickly stir into the meat mixture.\u00a0 Add catsup, tomato juice, and W-sauce.\u00a0 Cover, simmer five minutes, or until you have the potato puff mixture ready.<\/p>\n
In medium bowl, combine all the puff ingredients, blend well.<\/p>\n
Put the meat mixture in a 2 quart casserole (3 quart if you increased amount the way I did).\u00a0 Drop tablespoons of puff mixture into the meat mixture.\u00a0 Cover.\u00a0 Bake 30 minutes.\u00a0 You can also do everything up to actually putting it in the oven, and then hold off beginning cooking until close to mealtime.\u00a0 However, if it cools down, add 15-30 minutes to the cooking time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
