TATER TOT CASSEROLE



Tater Tot Casserole image

I first ate this hot dish, a Midwestern favorite, on a late fall evening in the humid kitchen of the cook and television star Molly Yeh, at her farmhouse in Minnesota. The casserole accompanied venison, lefse and talk of the sugar beet harvest outside. I thrilled to the cream-beefy, umami-strong flavors that sat beneath its golden, cobbled exterior, and I loved the way the potatoes soaked up the gravy that pooled below the venison. You could substitute other ground meats for the beef, and other frozen vegetables for the peas or corn, but the tots are mandatory, and I do love the addition of cheese at the end.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Categories     dinner, casseroles, vegetables, main course

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 carrots, peeled and finely chopped
2 celery stalks, finely chopped
1 large white or yellow onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups whole milk
2 tablespoons chicken, vegetable or beef broth base or bouillon
2 pounds ground beef (about 15 percent fat)
9 ounces frozen peas or corn, or a combination
1 1/2 pounds frozen Tater Tots
1 cup shredded Cheddar (optional)
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving (optional)
Ketchup, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Make the creamed soup: In a large pot, melt 6 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, celery, half the onion and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the flour and cook for another minute. Add half the milk and cook, stirring, until thickened. Add the remaining milk and cook, stirring, until very thick. Stir in the broth base, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour into a heat-safe bowl and set aside.
  • Wipe out the pot and set it back over medium-high heat. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then add the remaining onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned. Stir in the peas or corn and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Using a slotted spoon, drain and discard any excess liquid from the beef mixture. Transfer half the mixture to a 4-quart casserole dish and spread it out evenly. Spread half the creamed soup mixture on top. (It can be tricky to spread the soup over the beef, but it's OK if it gets messy and mixes together a little bit.)
  • Add the remaining beef mixture on top in an even layer, and spread the remaining creamed soup mixture on top. Cover with Tater Tots, sprinkle with another pinch of salt and pepper, then with cheese, if using.
  • Bake until the tots are golden brown and crispy on top, about 45 minutes. Let cool slightly. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with ketchup, if using.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground beef: For the best flavor, use a blend of 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef. This will give your casserole a juicy and flavorful texture.
  • Don't overcook the ground beef: Overcooked ground beef is tough and dry. Cook it just until it is no longer pink in the center.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor, color, and nutrients to your casserole. Some good options include diced onions, green peppers, celery, carrots, and corn.
  • Use a creamy soup base: This will help to bind the ingredients together and create a rich and flavorful sauce. Cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery soup, and cream of chicken soup are all good options.
  • Add some cheese: Cheese is always a good addition to a casserole. It adds flavor, richness, and gooeyness. Cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese are all good choices.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make a beef and tater tot casserole. Feel free to add your own favorite ingredients or seasonings to create a casserole that is uniquely yours.

Conclusion:

Beef and tater tot casserole is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its simple ingredients and delicious flavor, it's a perfect meal for a busy weeknight or a special occasion. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give beef and tater tot casserole a try. You won't be disappointed.
