Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large pan over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain the excess fat and set the beef aside.
2
In the same pan, cook the chopped onion and minced garlic until the onion is translucent. Add the cooked beef back into the pan and stir to combine.
3
In a separate pot, boil the diced potatoes until they're tender. Drain the potatoes and mash them with butter, salt, and pepper.
4
In a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, create a layer of the beef mixture. Top with a layer of mashed potatoes and repeat the process until all the ingredients are used up, finishing with a layer of potatoes on top.
5
Drizzle the top layer of potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with paprika. Bake the Pastel de Papa in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
