Step 3: Prepare the Baking Dish
Grease a large casserole dish with butter or cooking spray. Layer half of the sliced potatoes evenly on the bottom, followed by half of the sliced onions. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
Step 4: Assemble the Bake
Place the browned hamburger steaks on top of the potato and onion layer. Cover with the remaining potatoes and onions, spreading them evenly around and over the patties.
Step 5: Make the Creamy Gravy
In a bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and milk until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the entire casserole, making sure the liquid reaches down into the potatoes.
Dot the top with small pieces of butter for added richness.
Step 6: Bake Slowly
Cover the casserole tightly with foil and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 1 hour. After one hour, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is lightly golden.
Step 7: Rest and Serve
Remove the bake from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes before serving. This allows the gravy to thicken slightly and makes serving easier.
Serving Suggestions
This dish is hearty enough to stand on its own, but it pairs beautifully with:
- Steamed green beans or peas
- Fresh Amish-style bread or dinner rolls
- A simple cucumber or garden salad
