  • ~ ~ ~ ~
  • In a large bowl, combine ground beef with 1 teaspoon (5 mL) chopped fresh parsley and paprika.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add onion and combine well.
  • Peel and boil the potatoes whole, until they are a little soft, about 7 minutes.
  • Drain and slice. (I feel that boiling potatoes takes some of the flavor away).
  • Personally, I will be Microwaving the potatoes and slicing them. I will also leave the peels on, however, removal of them is super easy after they are microwaved.
  • Arrange the slices in a single layer on the bottom of a round baking dish, then form a vertical outline.
  • Form meatballs the size of ice cream scoops and arrange in dish.
  • Use the remaining potato slices to separate the meatballs, forming small compartments.
  • Pour the béchamel sauce into each of these compartments until they are full, then top with shredded mozzarella.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Bake for 15 minutes and enjoy.
