Ingredients

  • 800 g medium potatoes, peeled
  • 500 g beef mince
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 peppers, cut into small dice
  • 5-10 slices pickled jalapeños, finely chopped - optional
  • 3 tbsp Mexican seasoning or taco seasoning mix
  • 3 tbsp tomato purée
  • 200 ml beef stock
  • 200 ml cream whipping or cooking cream
  • 1 tin kidney beans or black beans, drained
  • 80 g cheddar, grated (ideally from a block)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Oil

To serve

Instructions

  • Boil the potatoes in a pan of salted water for about 8-10 minutes – or until they are almost tender. Drain and leave them to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, brown the beef well in a splash of oil in a frying pan or saucepan.
  • Add the onion, garlic, peppers and jalapeños, and fry until the onion is translucent.
  • Sprinkle over the seasoning and stir in the tomato purée, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and heat through thoroughly.
  • Add the stock and cream, and let the sauce simmer gently for about 5 minutes. Then stir in the beans.
    Meanwhile, cut the potatoes into slices.
  • Grease an ovenproof dish with oil and arrange half the potatoes in the bottom in a tight layer. Top with half the meat sauce and continue with the second and final layer of potatoes and meat sauce.
  • Scatter the cheddar over the top, muddle the top layer a little with two forks, and bake in a preheated conventional oven (top and bottom heat) at 200°C for about 25 minutes.
  • Let the bake rest for 10 minutes before serving with ice-cold crème fraîche on top.
