How To Make hamburger potato casserole

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick baking spray.
  • 2
    Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. About halfway through the browning process, add the onion and continue cooking until the beef is brown and the onion is soft. Reduce the heat to low and add the garlic, stirring and cooking for one minute. Drain any excess grease.
  • 3
    Melt the butter in the skillet with the hamburger mixture and sprinkle the mixture with flour. Slowly stir in the milk and continue cooking until thickened, stirring frequently. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  • 4
    Spoon a couple tablespoons of the beef mixture into the bottom of a casserole dish. Layer with 1/3 of the potatoes, hamburger gravy, and cheddar cheese. Repeat this process two times, ending with a layer of cheddar cheese.
  • 5
    Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and lightly browned and the potatoes are cooked tender.
