8–10 large potatoes
a little olive oil or cooking oil
Filling
500 g minced beef

Here's how to cook the dish step by step:
Start by setting the oven to 200°C so that it is really hot when you put the tray in.

Line a large baking sheet with baking paper and spread the potato slices evenly over the entire sheet. Try to make an even layer so that the potatoes bake properly.
