CHEESEBURGER CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease an 8-cup baking dish. Place baking dish on a cookie sheet.
• Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef and onions until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off fat.
• Drain liquid from canned tomatoes into a 4-cup measuring cup, adding water if needed, to make 2 1/2 cups of liquid. Add juice, tomatoes, macaroni, corn, bell pepper, garlic, soy sauce, chili powder, Italian seasoning, and pepper to the beef mixture; bring to a boil.
• Pour 1/2 of the beef mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with 1 cup of Mexican cheese, add remainder of beef mixture, and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
• Bake, covered, in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove cover and bake for another 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

MINUTE RICE FIVE SPICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Brown meat in oil, add onions and cook until tender.
• Stir in seasonings, soup, tomatoes, and Minute rice.
• Simmer 5 minutes.
• Stir occasionally.
• Spoon into 1 1/2 quart baking dish. (But I only use a cast iron skillet, since it is both oven and stove top friendly. Plus, my Grandmother always made it in a cast iron skillet, and I did learn from her. She was the best cook for comfort foods.).
• Criss cross with cheese and broil until cheese melts.
• Garnish with olives if desired.
• Instead of olives, we sometimes use jalepenos.
• Also, this recipe works well when you cook it in a cast iron skillet- you only dirty one dish that way!

SPICY BEEF STEW WITH BEANS & PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large saucepan with a lid. Season meat, then cook about one-third over a high heat for 10 mins until browned. Tip onto a plate and repeat with 2 tbsp of oil and rest of the meat.
• Add a splash of water and scrape pan to remove bits. Add ½ tbsp oil. Turn heat down, fry onion and garlic until softened. Return meat to the pan, add flour and stir for 1 min. Add treacle, cumin, tomatoes and stock. Bring to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 1 hr 45 mins. Stir occasionally and check that the meat is covered with liquid.
• Add peppers and beans, and cook for a further 15 mins. The stew can now be cooled and kept in the fridge for 2 days, or frozen for 1 month. Serve in bowls, with sour cream, coriander and cornbread.

BEEF CASSEROLE WITH SPICE

Steps:

• Perheat the oven to 200°C.
• Throw all the ingredients into a really big casserole. Add enough water to cover (about 1 litre or a little less should be right) and about 2 teaspoons salt.
• Turn the oven down to 160C, pop the lid on the casserole and cook for about 3 hours or so. (Much of this time - about 1 hour - the casserole is coming up to heat so to speed things up you can bring it to a simmer on the stove in a flame proof dish).
• Check for salt, add a few grinds of black pepper and serve.

RUSTIC BEEF CASSEROLE (SPICY)

Steps:

• In a pan fry/seal-off the beef until nice and brown, a little bit crispy.
• Remove beef from the pan into a large pot.
• Add onions to the pan and fry them in the juices from the beef.
• When the onions are getting soft, add the garlic.
• When all the juices are gone and they are just about to burn, add onions and galic to large pot, with the beef.
• Add to the pot: 4 large glasses of water. 1/2 to 1 large glass of red wine. stock cube. mixed herbs. salt and pepper. dried chillies. bay leaf.
• Put the lid on the pot and simmer for 2 hours.
• After 2 hours, add to the pot: courgette. bell pepper. chopped new potatoes. tin of chopped tomatoes.
• Cook again for another 30 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked.
• (Some crusty bread and a cool beer go excellently with this dish).
