Single-Serving Minced Beef Potato Gratin

A twist on traditional potato gratin, this hearty single-serving dish combines perfectly seasoned minced beef with layers of creamy potatoes. Think of it as a cross between a cottage pie and a gratin - perfect for using up leftover mince or potatoes. The beef layer is rich and flavourful, while the potato layers become tender and creamy, with a gorgeous golden-brown top.
