Potato with pork on a baking sheet
Description
As a meat base, not only pork but also beef or chicken will work perfectly. You can even replace the meat entirely with mushrooms or other vegetables. It all depends on your imagination, taste preferences, and available ingredients. Preparing this dish won't take much of your time—just layer all the ingredients and bake in the oven. While it's cooking, you'll have time to prepare a salad, appetizers, and other dishes.
