Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 cups potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 tablespoons butter, or to taste
salt to taste
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 onion, diced
2 tomatoes, diced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 pound ground beef
2 tablespoons shredded panquehue cheese
½ teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
salt and black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
  • Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Mash the hot potatoes with butter and salt. Let cool until just warm; stir in the beaten egg until smooth.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and tomato paste; continue cooking until the tomatoes soften and begin to lose their shape. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 10 minutes. Stir in the panquehue cheese and parsley; season to taste with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
  • Spread half of the mashed potato mixture into the prepared baking dish. Cover with the ground beef mixture, then spread the remaining mashed potatoes over the beef to completely cover.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the potatoes are hot and the top is lightly browned, about 40 minutes.

PASTEL DE PAPA (POTATOE AND GROUND BEEF PIE)



Pastel De Papa (Potatoe and Ground Beef Pie) image

This is a delicious dish we make in Argentina. It's almost more like a casserole than a pie. Instead of potatoes you can also use mashed cauliflower, carrots or sweet potatoes as well.

Categories     Mashed Potatoes

Time 1h5m

Yield 5-7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb ground beef
2 onions
3 carrots (grated)
2 hard-boiled eggs
1/2 cup green olives (optional)
5 -7 peeled potatoes
2 tablespoons butter (or to taste)
1 pinch milk (optional)
cumin (to taste)
salt and pepper (to taste)
crushed red pepper flakes (to taste)

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes until soft enough to mash. Drain then let cool down.
  • Chop the onions into long thin slices and cook the onion together with the ground beef in a heated pan with (olive or canola) oil.
  • Once the beef is fully cooked but not too dry (let there be some juice) you can add the grated carrots, olives, and chopped boiled eggs. Then add spices and mix together well.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • After the potatoes are cool enough, with a potatoe masher, mash them completely to take out as many chunks as possible. Add the butter, milk and salt if desired to taste.
  • In an oven safe dish, place a first half inch layer of mashed potatoes on the bottom of the dish. Then apply all of the beef mixture on top of the first mashed potatoe layer. Then apply the second and final layer of mashed potatoes on top of the beef. Top with small pieces of butter, parsley and grated cheese (if desired). Let the potatoe brown and heat in the oven for twenty minutes. Let cool and serve warm!

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients ahead of time: This will make the cooking process much smoother and faster, especially if you're making the Pastel de Papas for a large group.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the Pastel de Papas will taste. Look for fresh, organic vegetables, and high-quality meat.
