How to Make Kittencal's Cheesy Ground Beef Potato Kugel

  1. In a large skillet, brown 1 lb ground beef with 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic until no longer pink.
  2. Drain excess grease, return beef to skillet. Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Cook until well browned. Set aside.
  3. Using a box grater, shred 3 lbs potatoes. Thoroughly squeeze out excess moisture. Place in a large bowl.
  4. Add 3 large lightly beaten eggs, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and the cooked ground beef mixture to the potatoes.
  5. Gently mix with your hands until everything is well combined.
  6. Grease a 13x9 inch baking dish. Transfer the potato mixture into the prepared dish and spread evenly.
  7. Sprinkle 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese over the top.
  8. Place the baking dish on a large baking sheet (to catch any spills).
  9. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  10. Bake uncovered for 50-75 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through. The longer it bakes, the crispier it gets!
