Directions

Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃).

Beef Layer:

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté onion in 2 tablespoons butter.

Add ground beef and cook until browned.

Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.

Potato Layer:

Peel and slice potatoes ¼ inch thick.

Place in a saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil.

Cook for approximately 15 minutes or until fork tender.

Drain potatoes and transfer to a mixing bowl.

Whip potatoes with an electric mixer, mixing until moderately smooth.

Don't over beat them; a few lumps are nice.

Add ½ cup heated milk, 1 stick butter, and sour cream.

Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Whip again until mixed.

Adjust thickness by adding more milk, if desired.

Biscuit Layer:

Combine biscuit mix and 1½ cups of milk.

The mix should be thinner than that of normal biscuit mix but not runny.

Spray a 9 by 9 by 2-inch pan (or any similar casserole dish) with cooking spray.

Layer mashed potatoes halfway up the sides of the dish.

Next, spread a layer of corn or mixed vegetables on top of the potatoes.

Then add the layer of meat.

Pour the biscuit mix over the meat.

Melt 4 tablespoons of butter and drizzle over top.

Bake for approximately 35 to 45 minutes or until top is golden brown.

Let stand for a few minutes before serving.
