Tips For The Ground Pork and Potatoes Casserole Recipe

➡️ Minced meat is often used to cook various pork recipes. There are thousands of recipes all over the world with ground meat and many of them use ground pork cooked as a casserole.

➡️ The ground pork recipe for dinner presented on this page is based on a Greek moussaka recipe prepared with potatoes instead of eggplant. Many of you already heard about and, probably, tasted eggplant Greek moussaka at least once in your life, so you can figure out how will look and taste ground pork and potato casserole. However, potato moussaka is less typical for Greece and rather is very popular across the Balkans and especially in countries such as Serbia, Bosnia, and Romania.

➡️ Cooking pork and potatoes casserole is very easy and you don’t need many ingredients, or advanced cooking skills to get excellent results. The preparation and cooking time is short, so using this very delicious and easy potato bake recipe allows you to make excellent food quickly and with little effort!

➡️ As for the cream sauce I use in the recipe, it is not at all typical for Greece or other Balkan cuisines. It’s actually a kind of au gratin sauce used in French cuisine that I often add to the recipes I cook in the oven.

➡️ If you do not want to use the sauce that I recommend, you can simply add over the last layer of potatoes only the cream that you have previously mixed with 2 tablespoons of flour, as in the traditional Greek way to top an eggplant moussaka. So you don’t even need eggs.
