Meatball And Cheese Bake Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Prepare a basic béchamel sauce:
  • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
  • Add flour and stir to form a golden roux, stirring constantly for about 6 minutes.
  • Heat milk until simmering, then whisk into roux until smooth.
  • Bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes, stirring constantly, adding salt and nutmeg at the end.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • In a large bowl, combine ground beef with 1 teaspoon 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.
  • (NOTE FROM ERMA: I am going to bake/microwave them with skins on, then slice them. )
  • Drain and slice.
  • 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.
  • Bake for 15 minutes and enjoy.
