👩🍳 Instructions:
- Begin by combining the ground mince, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, parsley, sage, garlic, mushrooms, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Mix these delightful ingredients thoroughly, ensuring a harmonious blend of flavors.
- Shape the mixture into eight sausage shapes, wrapping each one in a rasher of bacon. Set these savory rolls aside for later.
- Grease a rectangular or oval ovenproof dish generously. Lay out the potato slices evenly in the dish and season them with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Brush the potato slices with the richness of melted butter, adding a layer of indulgence to the dish.
- Arrange the bacon-wrapped meat rolls down the center of the dish, covering them for an immersive cooking experience.
- Preheat your oven to 200°C and let the casserole bake for 30-40 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify.
- Cut the tomatoes in half and place them around the edge of the dish, introducing a burst of freshness.
- Sprinkle the grated cheese generously over the top of the meat rolls and tomatoes, creating a golden, cheesy crust.
- Return the casserole to the oven, this time leaving it uncovered, and let it cook for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the potatoes reach a delightful tenderness, and the cheese achieves a mesmerizing golden brown hue.
- As the aroma fills your kitchen, you know it’s ready! Garnish your Monday Casserole with a touch of Doreen Randal’s personal touch and enjoy the culinary symphony you’ve just created.
