Are there any recipe variations?

To the beef center, you can try adding any aromatic vegetables like leeks or mushrooms. As for the crispy potato top, you can swap the potatoes for squash, rutabaga, or kohlrabi. You can also flavor the recipe with a mixture of fresh or dried herbs and spices adjusted to your liking. Thyme and rosemary are classics, and feel free to add a hint of chili flakes if you like a bit of spice. If you’re unsure about the spice, you can always add it to your bowl after serving to try.

Can you prepare this beef hotpot ahead of time?

The best Whole30 dinner recipes are ones that can be prepared in advance. The night before, follow all the steps to making this dish but don't bake it. Cover it in plastic wrap and store it in the fridge for up to 2 days. When it's dinner time, brush the ghee over the potatoes, and bake it at 180 C/ 350 F for 10 minutes longer than what the recipe asks for.
