Minced BEEF Potato CHEDDAR CHEESE Cobbler | EASY ONE POT

A hearty, comforting one-pan dish perfect for any family meal. This cobbler features a savory minced beef filling, rich with flavours of onions, garlic, carrots, celery, and potatoes, all simmered together in a robust tomato and beef stock base. The filling is seasoned with Worcestershire sauce and thyme, giving it a deep, satisfying flavor.
The crowning glory of this dish is the delightful cheddar cheese suet dumplings. Made from self-raising flour, Atora suet, and a generous helping of grated cheddar cheese, these dumplings are soft and fluffy on the inside and slightly crisp on the outside. Their cheesy richness perfectly complements the savoury beef filling.
Cooked entirely on the stovetop, the dish is finished by steaming the dumplings on top of the beef filling, ensuring they soak up all the delicious flavors. Served hot, this minced beef and potato cheddar cheese cobbler is the epitome of comfort food, offering a deliciously warm and satisfying meal for any occasion.

Taking Cooking food back to basics.
Ingredients:
For the Minced Beef Filling:
- 500g minced beef
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 celery sticks, diced
- 200g mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tbsp tomato puree
- 400g canned chopped tomatoes
- 300ml beef stock
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp dried thyme or a few sprigs of fresh thyme
For the Cheese Suet Dumplings:
- 100g self-raising flour
- 50g Atora suet - use the butter to 50g if you have no suet
- 50g grated cheese (cheddar works well)
- A pinch of salt - optional
- A pinch of pepper - optional
-A Pinch of dried Thyme
- Cold water (about 75ml)
NOTE: As I said in the video, if you cannot get suet, you can make the same type of dumpling with Butter. They will be a tad heavier.

[@firebyrd437]

I just said to my hubby that people who can't cook would have better meals if they watched you. You're right about the many people who need to eeck our their beef ingredients. My mum always put a packet of swell and a little macaroni when cooking mince and made dough balls as she was a single mother of 5 and only had her wage. We always had the Sunday roast, though. I've never had suet in my dough balls. I just use butter, and they are as light as a cloud. I'll make this with Suet next time just for a comparison. One of the tastiest foods I've ever had was stovies. Mum always kept a small amount of mince and would make stoves the next day, but one day, she used the dripping from our Sunday roast and cubed a small amount of the leftover roast. In those days, you had a decent amount of fat on your roast, which made the roast so much more flavousim and the gravy as well. Those stovies were absolutely fantastic.

We are trying to follow you as you cook.😂 My husband can't figure out the dumpling texture. The suet is determined to keep its shape!😂 Oh boy. I think we'll just have to get it in there and see how it works. It smells delicious! We ended up putting it in a big pot because as usual we make too much We are serving 4 people though. Thanks for the recipe.

You can do it! Thank you. Best, Rik

@@BackyardChef it is delicious! We've made quite a mess though. I think next time we'll limit it to two pots! Instead of frying pans, that way it should all fit! 😊

This is real cooking. This is how my old Mom used to do it. Good one Rik. For those of us in the States, "Bizquik" makes a nice fluffy dumpling if you can't find suet. To me, fluffy dumplings are the way, those gummy chewy kind they like in the south, sucks in my opinion, but hey...whatever you like :) We always called this 'Hamburger Soup'...easier to say than your version Bud :) It is delicious and this is a good version. It probably should have been called "hamburger and let's see what else we got soup". Make this folks, it's gud fud.

Cheers, mate - I was going to make Hamburger gravy - however a mum came on a couple of days ago and said her disabled daughter watches and makes the dishes off the channel. She asked if I could make a minced beef cobbler - I hope she see's it. Thank you. Best, Rik

My mom used to make a "chopped beef stew" with hamburger meat. Basically everything that would go in a regular beef stew, but a quick version using minced beef. Pretty similar to this recipe, but in a more vertical soup pot and no dumpling/cobbler topping. I haven't made it in a while. Thanks for reminding me.
