Ingredients
  

Beef

  • 10.5 oz ground beef lean or round
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • Salt, black pepper to taste

Base

  • 14 oz potatoes thinly sliced (2 large russets)
  • 7 oz shredded mozzarella about 1 3/4 cups

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise about 60 g
  • 3 tbsp ketchup about 50 g
  • 1 1/2 tsp yellow mustard

Other

  • 1/2 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 4 pieces dill pickles thinly sliced
  • 3 cups shredded iceberg lettuce about 3.5 oz

Instructions
 

  • Line a sheet pan with parchment. Arrange potato slices into a tight rectangle.
  • Sprinkle shredded mozzarella over potatoes. Bake 20–30 minutes at 350°F (180°C) until edges are golden and cheese is bubbly.
  • Let cool a few minutes, then flip the potato-cheese sheet so the cheese side faces down.
  • While it bakes and cools, heat oil in a skillet over medium-high. Cook ground beef with salt and pepper, breaking it up until browned and cooked through.
  • Stir together mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard to make the sauce. Thinly slice onion and pickles; shred lettuce.
  • Spread sauce over the potato base. Scatter beef, onion, pickles, and lettuce evenly across.
  • Roll up firmly from a short side to form a log. Slice into 2 or 4 pieces. Serve warm.

Notes

Bake at 350°F (180°C), not hotter, to keep the potatoes tender while the cheese crisps.
Slice potatoes very thin for even baking and easy rolling. A mandoline helps.
Roll while the base is still slightly warm so it bends without cracking.
