Learn how to make delicious ground beef and potato recipes. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Feel free to add a pinch of paprika for a smoky depth or substitute the cheddar for your favorite cheese blend. Mama Lu always taught me that recipes should be flexible, allowing you to infuse your own flair and flavors.

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic, cooking until they are soft and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and no longer pink, approximately 6-8 minutes.
  3. Stir in the diced potatoes, ensuring they are coated with the beef’s juices.
  4. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  5. Sprinkle in the salt, pepper, and thyme, stirring to combine. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  6. Once the potatoes are cooked through, remove the lid and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top. Cover again briefly, allowing the cheese to melt.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy the simple, heartwarming flavors that echo the traditions of my childhood.
