I love to cook as you might figured out already. As we are very international in my home. For example I born in one country and now living in a other country. My partner comes from a third countryโฆ
Rice has been a problem in the past, but I founded out that the rice I usually using was the problem. Changed and now everyone loves it. ๐๐๐ป
This dish is a favourite here at home. Got it from my dear friend, whoโs husband was born in Indonesia. perfect to do a big tin and use the leftovers for lunch boxes.

Indonesian potatoes and minced meat
- 300g minced meat
- 1 chopped onion
- 2 garlic cloves mashed
- 1 red chopped pepper
- 2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 300g of any kind of green beans
- 5 tablespoons ketjap manis
- Salt and pepper
- For mash:
- 4 large potatoes
- 2 tablespoons butter
- A splash of milk
- Salt and pepper
Start to cook the potatoes in salted water.
Heat up the oil and fry the minced meat and onions until it got a nice colour. Add garlic, pepper and spices. Let it cook for 5 minutes. Add the green beans and ketjap. Let it simmer for 10 minutes.
Poor out the water and add milk and butter. Make a mash. Add salt and pepper.
Put the meat in a oven proof tray. Top tge meat with the potatoes mash.
In the oven 225c for about 20 minutes or until itโs got a good colour.
Enjoy! ๐๐๐ป๐ท
Oh yummy, this looks delicious … almost like a cottage pie (but just with green beans in). And I was wondering what on earth ‘ketjap manis’ is (had to google and saw it’s some sort of soy sauce). Thanks for sharing!

Try it Iโm sure you will love it. My partner loves his cottage pie so this is very nice and similar. Yes Ketjap is a sweet soya sauce. Actually very common in Dutch cookingโs.
