Much easier and quicker than making a meatloaf or a cottage pie. You do not pre-cook anything. Just combine everything and fill a baking dish, then cover with shredded potatoes and cheese. Sounds interesting? Once you have tried it, it becomes a part of your repertoire. Naturally you can use any minced meat of your choice.

Steps

1

Pre-heat oven to 200C. Place Bread Crumbs and Milk in a large bowl, mix to combine and allow to sit for 10 minutes.
2

Add Pork Mince, Onion, Garlic and the sliced Sage leaves, season with Salt & Pepper, and combine all well. Fill a lightly oiled baking dish with the pork mixture.
3

Peel the skin of potatoes, then shred using a grater. Alternatively slice them into fine strips. A lot of water should come out, so drain and lightly press down to remove water.
4

Place the shredded potato in a heat-proof bowl, add 1 tablespoon Olive Oil, Salt and Pepper, then mix to combine. Heat in the Microwave for 2 to 3 minutes. *Note: This heating process can be skipped but recommended.
5

Cover the pork mixture with the potato mixture, then scatter the shredded Tasty Cheese. Bake for 30 minutes or until cooked through and the top is golden.
6

Sprinkle the chopped Parsley over and serve. *I forgot the Parsley for this photo.
