My family loved this recipe. I pre boiled the potatoes and left out the tomato sauce. Buttered the bottom of non-stick pan, placed the potatoes in, then the beef mixture, Sauteed portabella mushrooms, pre-partially steamed brocolli, and covered in the sauce. Then I sprinkled with French Fried Onions to kick it up a bit and add some crunch after reading other reviews about it being bland. Baked for only about 15 minutes. Yummy!

<> from Kattjovi I have been reading a lot of reviews where people have said they need to drain the fat from the meat. This is an Australian Recipe, and we don't have a high fat content in our mince steak, so we don't need to drain it. I apologise to o/s cooks, I did not realise this when I posted the recipe, and yes Ketchup is Tomato Sauce in Australia. I think this recipe is quite versatile, you can add whatever herbs etc you like, you could even spice it up with a bit of chili powder! That's the fun of cooking,(I think) experimenting! Enjoy!

Just all right. We didn't find this to be all that great. It was edible, but I doubt I will make it again.

Such a great recipe. My whole family including picky children will eat this and ask for seconds!! My only advice is that you need to make sure the potatoes are very thinly sliced to ensure it is cooked throughly.

This recipe should say to drain the meat, but that is a common practice when added ground meat to anything. I didn't really understand the 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce so I just added some ketchup. I eyeballed the milk until I thought the cheese sauce had a good consistency-not too soupy. Try adding about 1/2 tablespoon of blue cheese chunks to the cheese sauce (adjust to taste). It perks up the flavor of the cheese sauce. We cooked this for about 45 minutes uncovered and it was fine. This will become our winter regular. Thank you!

This recipe is great if you are looking for a simple but filling dish. Instead of peeling and cutting potatoes I used a bag of frozen cubed potatoes. I am sure you could use hashbrowns too. It saved some time and cooked up quickly.

Delicioso! I drained the beef. I also used the "soy substitute" recipe from this site instead of Worcheshire Sauce. I tried 5 potatoes since I used 2lbs of beef but that was still too much. Suggest 4 potatoes. I double the sauce since I did have double the meat. Also cooked with foil on for 1 hr and uncovered for 20 more minutes. Perfection!

good recipe,, but to add a little more flavour add a tea spoon of dried mixed herbs to the mince beef,, and if you want a hotter flavour a few diced chilles

This is quite a filling casserole. I baked it a little longer and some of the potatoes were not quite cooked. Give it some extra time in the oven.

I liked this meal, but the wife and kids did not. The kids liked the potatoes but not the meat (the Worcestershire taste I think). My wife was unhappy that the potatoes were only partially cooked (even after an extended baking time). I think if I were to make it again I would bake it covered with foil for 45min then uncovered for the last 15min(this is how I cook my scalloped ham and potatoes and the potatoes are always tender). This could be a great meat and potatoes recipe with some adjustments.

This was beautiful...my husband loved the shepards pie crossed with scolloped potato. I added, more vegies like carrots and peas and for the mushrooms, I added half a can of mushrooms in butter sauce, the butter sauce made the mince perfect! Definately a new family fav!

I liked this recipe a lot, however, you definately need to drain the meat. To cut down on the grease, I used half a cup of cheddar cheese and half a cup of monteray jack cheese.(cheddar cheese is very oily). As far as the potatoes go, first I pre-cooked the meat with onions, fresh garlic, and chili sauce (replacing the tomato sauce). I then refrigerated the meat for about an hour. Then I sliced the potatoes very thin and cooked the whole thing together for 1hr. The first half hour, I kept it covered with aluminum foil, and then took it off the last half hour. The potoes came out very tender. My husband and kids loved it.

My boyfriend and I love this recipe. We use a potato peeler to "peel" off thin slices. It's faster than trying to slice them with a knife, and we don't have a problem with them being too thick. We don't always put the tomato sauce in, and we usually use fresh mushrooms (if we have them), and we always drain the meat. We also add spices when cooking the meat--usually a little chilli powder and some garlic powder (or fresh minced garlic)--to kick it up a little bit. This is definitely our favorite recipe from this site so far though!

This was horrible. I too sliced the potatoes really thin, and they were still firm after cooking it for more than 40 minutes. Plus is was so so soupy. I think 2 cups of milk is way too much liquid. I probably wont make this again. Sorry.
