Directions
Gratin of Beef and Potatoes,A recipe by Paul Prudhomme. I love the idea of a one dish meal made with ground beef. Chef Prudhomme’s Meat Magic can be effectively substituted with any Cajun or Creole seasoning mix. Everyone needs a one-dish recipe for an everyday meal!,This was just delicious, but I will cut back on the potatoes next time by about a third. Loved the flavor that the cajun seasoning added to the mixture although made it a little salty for us. This made a huge amount and filled a 9×13 pan and would serve 6-8 people in my family or more. Very rich and filling. Thanks for sharing Made for PRMR :),My husband and I both enjoyed this very much. I had a pound of ground bison thawed and some yukon gold potatoes when I went searching for a recipe for supper. I found this recipe and found that I had everything except the carrots (no big deal). I made as directed using a smaller amount of seasoning, which was fine, it still had great flavor just not as much heat. If making only for myself I would have used the full amount. used a little less cheese as well. Great recipe. Looking forward to the leftovers. Will definitely make again.
