Ingredients (Serves 4–6)
- 4 cups potatoes (peeled and diced into small cubes)
- 2 cups canned baked beans (any classic variety)
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
Start by washing, peeling, and dicing your potatoes into small, even cubes. This helps them cook evenly and become tender in the oven. Chop your onion finely so it blends nicely into the casserole without overpowering each bite.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) so it’s ready once your casserole is assembled.
Step 2: Parboil the Potatoes
Place the diced potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Let them cook for about 8–10 minutes, just until they begin to soften but are not fully cooked.
Drain the potatoes well and set them aside. This step ensures your casserole won’t be undercooked or too firm after baking.
