Once the potatoes were done, I transferred them immediately to a medium basin and mashed them with a large egg until I had incorporated the mixture. And of course, to season it, I added cracked black pepper and a pinch of salt.

Step 3:

After that, I prepared the Italian meatballs like usual, there are many recipes that detailed the process.

At this step, I set the temperature of the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and I greased and dusted with flour a 9×13 inch baking pan or use nonstick cooking spray to coat the bottom of the pan.

Step 5:

In the bottom of the casserole dish, I layered the mashed potatoes, then placed the meatballs on top of the mashed potatoes in an equal layer on top of the potatoes.

Following that, I placed the casserole dish in the oven and baked for 20 minutes, until the casserole was well heated.
