List of Ingredients




1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
3/4 cup water
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried mint, optional
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon pepper

PARMESAN SAUCE:

1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced

Recipe



In a large skillet, cook the beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in water, tomato paste, parsley, salt, mint if desired, cinnamon and pepper. Set aside.

For sauce, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot mixture into eggs; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Add the Parmesan cheese and salt.

Place half of the potato slices in a greased shallow 3-qt. baking dish. Top with half of the Parmesan sauce and all of the meat mixture. Arrange the remaining potatoes over meat mixture; top with the remaining Parmesan sauce.

Bake, uncovered, at 350°F for 1 hour or until potatoes are tender. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Yield: 8-10 servings.
