Method
- Boil peeled potatoes in salted water until tender (approx. 15-20 mins). Drain well.
- Mash potatoes with butter while hot. Let cool slightly, then mix in egg, milk, chopped dill, salt, and pepper until smooth and firm.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a skillet, sauté onions and peppers in oil until soft. Add ground beef and cook until browned.
- Stir in garlic, tomato paste, and spices to the beef. Cook 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
- Scoop mashed potatoes onto baking sheet. Form into nests by creating a well in the center of each mound.
- Fill each nest with the beef mixture and top generously with shredded cheese.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until cheese is bubbly and potato edges are golden brown. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve.
Notes
Ensure the mashed potatoes are not too wet, or the nests may spread during baking.
