Method

  1. Fry the onions until soft, add the mince and paprika, and cook until browned. Season well.

  2. Oil a deep baking dish. Layer potatoes, then meat, then potatoes again, seasoning each layer.

  3. Bake covered at 190°C for 40 minutes.

  4. Whisk the eggs with the milk, pour over the top, and bake uncovered another 20 minutes until golden.

  5. Rest before cutting into proud squares.

A note from Mama:

Some houses add rice to the meat. We do not speak of those houses.
