Cheesy Beef and Giant Potato Roll with Fresh Vegetable Salads

ADVERTISEMENT

Prepare the Potatoes: Peel the potatoes and cut them into chunks. Boil them in salted water until soft (about 15 minutes). Drain and mash the potatoes. Let them cool slightly.

Cook the Ground Beef: In a large pan, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Stir in the canned or fresh tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and simmer for 5 minutes.

Assemble the Roll: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). On a large baking sheet, spread the mashed potatoes into a rectangle, pressing them into an even layer. Add the cooked beef mixture on top, and sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over it. Carefully roll the potatoes and beef into a log, using parchment paper to help roll it tightly.

Bake the Roll: Place the roll in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the roll is golden brown.

Prepare the Salad: While the roll is baking, prepare the salad by chopping the vegetables and tossing them with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper.

Serve: Once the roll is done, remove it from the oven and slice into portions. Serve with the fresh vegetable salad on the side.
