Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground beef
• 1 medium, diced White onion
• 2 minced Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a medium-sized baking dish with butter.

Step 2

In a skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 7-8 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the cooked beef mixture, stirring until combined. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the floury taste.

Step 5

Gradually add the milk to the skillet, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens into a creamy sauce. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Slowly add the cooled beef mixture to the eggs, a little at a time, to avoid curdling.

Step 7

Pour the beef and egg mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.

Step 8

Top the mixture with shredded cheddar cheese and breadcrumbs for a golden, crunchy topping.

Step 9

Dot the breadcrumbs with small pieces of butter to help them brown, and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until set and golden-brown on top.

Step 10

Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
