Notes From My Kitchen. Saturday, June 25, 2011. Debbie (one of my rotation dinner friends) received this recipe from her mother-in-law from England. It's quite delicious! 1 lb lean ground beef. 1 onion finely chopped. 2 bullion cubes, diluted in just enough water to cover. Dash of Worcestershire Sauce. 2 lbs of mashed potatoes. Put beef mixture in a casserole dish (approximate size: 2 quart). Bake in a 350 degree oven for 1/2 hour or until the beef juices bubble around the edges of the potato mixture.
