Now, back to our \u201cLebanese Potato Souffl\u00e9\u201d! It is easy and quite simple to put together, and when you pull it out of the oven, your whole house will smell like heaven. Mashed potatoes are great, but adding a layer of minced lamb takes this dish to another level. In Lebanon, we enjoy both beef and lamb, so this dish works beautifully with either meat. If you love the flavor of lamb, I recommend giving it a try. I even put my own spin on the classic recipe to suit my taste by adding Parmesan cheese to the mashed potatoes and chopped spinach to the meat filling. Both ingredients brought the mashed potatoes and the filling to life!<\/p>\n
