Instructions
- Cook the potatoes, mash with milk and butter, and set aside.
- Start oven heating to 180 C / 350 F / Gas Mark 4.
- Chop onion. Heat oil (or butter or margarine or lard) in a frying pan. Toss the onion in, cook until translucent. Add the ground beef and cook until thoroughly cooked. Season with salt and pepper. Drain; turn into the casserole dish. Pour the cans of creamed corn over the beef evenly. Top evenly with the mashed potato.

Potato layer should be 1 ½ to 2 inches thick.
Use a 1.5 to 2 litre / US quart casserole dish.
Serve with ketchup or a chow-chow.
