mom’s recipe modified:
- 1.22 lbs beef (“stew meat” ground)
- 1 cup oatmeal blend
- 2 shallots chopped
- 1 egg
- 1 can tom paste
- salt, pepper (white, black, and cayenne)
- 1 T sage (fresh)
- 1 t Worcestershire
bake 350f 60 minutes
potatoes
- 4 russets boiled and riced
- butter (less than half cube)
- cream (heavy heavy)
- pepper
- salt
- spread into greased cookie sheet
bake 350f 40 minutes (share oven)
I finished the potatoes for maybe 6 or 8 minutes under the broiler because I wanted more browning.
Timing is useful.
