Potatoes with meat in the oven - a real treat for any fuss

If you look at the average menu of the inhabitant of Russia, or maybe even wider, it turns out that the main product is potatoes. In all kinds. Most often, of course, fried potatoes, boiled and mashed potatoes.

At the same time, fried potatoes, so beloved, can hardly be attributed to dietary products. Vitamins with this treatment are not preserved, but when frying is added fat, and in its worst incidence - overheated.

The top layer is grated cheese, put it for 10-15 minutes until it is ready. The time of cooking such a culinary discovery is about forty minutes.

As an experiment, we can remove the layer of meat from the recipe and diversify the vegetable filling. Then we will get a new option: potatoes with vegetables in the oven.

You can also diversify the dish - and make potatoes with champignons in the oven with sour cream. Then the potatoes are cut larger - about four parts, laid out in a baking sheet covered with foil. We also put mushrooms, sour cream, mushrooms and spices. We cover the dish with foil from above - and bake until ready.

Potatoes with meat in the oven. Meat, washed and peeled, sprinkle with salt and spices and cook until half ready. Potatoes are cleaned and cut into quarters. Salt to taste, sprinkle with red pepper and spices, add a little olive oil and mix the ingredients well (shaking in a bowl until the potatoes take all the spices). We spread the potatoes into a deep baking tray. On top put the cooked meat, cut into portions. Cover with foil (or, who likes, we put in the sleeve for baking) and put in the oven for another 30-40 minutes. The process is long, however, most of the time the oven works for us.
