Let’s get started.

So, where to begin? First up, you need to make sure you have the complete ingredients, which are:

  • 1 kg (2 lbs) potatoes
  • 1 onion
  • Vegetable oil
  • 450 grams (16 oz) of minced beef
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Paprika
  • Garlic powder
  • 200 grams (14 oz) of diced tomatoes
  • Dill
  • Butter
  • Cheese

The process starts with the potatoes. Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes.

Put them inside a pot of water and wait until it boils.

While waiting, grab the onion and mince it.

Once done, get a pan, heat vegetable oil in it, and saute the onion until it becomes a bit transparent.

Now, the meat.

Put the ground beef in the pan and continue to stir to break it down nicely.

Next, season the meat with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Get the diced tomatoes and pour them onto the seasoned meat. Stir and wait until it cooks slowly on low heat.

Check on the potatoes and if they are soft enough, take them out of the pot and put them in a bowl.

Have fun mashing the potatoes.

This part is quite satisfying and probably the part you will love best, aside from eating this dish, of course.

Sprinkle the sliced dill on the potato, add butter, and mash away!

Make sure that it is properly mashed before putting oil on your hands and making balls made of it.

You should be able to make four good-sized potato balls.

Using a cup or glass, make a circular dent in the middle and this is where the seasoned meat will go.

Pour yummy cheese on top and bake at 400°F for about 10 minutes.

Find your most comfortable place to eat and enjoy!
