GROUND BEEF WITH POTATOES

Instructions:

1. Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
2. Add the chopped onions and cook for a few minutes until they become translucent.
3. Add the minced garlic and ground beef to the pan. Cook the beef, breaking it up with a spatula, until it’s browned and cooked through.
4. Add the diced potatoes to the pan and mix them with the beef and onions.
5. Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried thyme (if using). Stir to distribute the seasonings evenly.
6. Pour in the beef broth (or water) to help steam and cook the potatoes. Cover the pan with a lid and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. You may need to stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
7. Once the potatoes are soft and the liquid has evaporated, the dish is ready.
8. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed, adding more salt and pepper if necessary.
9. Serve your ground beef and potato hash hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

This dish is both delicious and filling, making it a great comfort food option. You can also customize it by adding vegetables like bell peppers, peas, or carrots for extra flavor and nutrition. Enjoy!
