CHEESY GROUND BEEF AND POTATOES
This dish is best described as comfort food. With the cheesy ground beef layered atop a bed of buttery potatoes, you will keep coming back for more. I use a mandolin to thinly slice the potatoes.

Steps:
- Dice the potatoes into small cubes, cut the carrots into thin slices, and mince 3 cloves of garlic. Set to the side. * The smaller the cube and slice size, the faster the potatoes and carrots will cook.
- Using a large and deep pan or cast-iron skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until it is no longer pink. Season to preferred taste. Drain the grease from the pan and transfer the ground beef to a bowl or plate until ready for use.
- Once the grease has been removed and the ground beef set aside, heat the olive oil and butter in the same pan over medium-high heat. Add in the onions and then garlic. Cook until softened and fragrant. Next add in the potatoes, carrots, peppers, onion, cooked ground beef, and only 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce. Add 2 tablespoons of butter, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Taste test and add the remaining 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, if needed, to increase the flavor. Pour in beef broth. Keep the potatoes and carrots covered with the liquid to soften quickly.
- Reduce the heat to simmer and cook uncovered for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until the carrots and potatoes are soft and tender but not squishy or mashable.
- Remove from heat. Stir in the sour cream, cream cheese, and 2 cups of shredded cheese until melted. Top the dish with the remaining ½ cup of shredded cheese and serve.

Tips:

- Brown the beef before braising. This will help to develop flavor and color.
- Use a good quality beef broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
- Add vegetables to the pot. Carrots, celery, and onions are all good choices.
- Season the dish to taste. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good options.
- Cook the dish until the beef is tender. This will take about 2 hours.
- Serve the dish over mashed potatoes or rice.
Conclusion:
This creamy beef and potatoes recipe is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. The beef is braised until it is fall-apart tender, and the potatoes are creamy and delicious. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
