About the Recipe: Some form of this dish is popular in most Latin American countries and was adapted from the British Cottage Pie. It’s a simple and tasty main course with layers of ground beef, boiled eggs, and mashed potatoes. It’s topped with melted cheese and dots of pepper relish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley. It is similar to the Shepherd Pie served in the U.S.

Cook’s Note: If you prepare the baking dishes ahead, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Before baking, bring to room temperature; baking time will depend on the dishes’ temperature. For larger servings, double the recipe. If beer is unavailable, you can substitute some red wine.
Layer into Baking Dishes: Divide the beef mixture evenly into two square baking dishes; place egg slices over beef mixture; spread half of mashed potatoes into each pan over the egg layer; sprinkle about 1/2 cup shredded cheese over each. Dot the top of each casserole with pepper relish. Bake in preheated 350-degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until cheese starts to melt. Before serving; place under broiler for 3 to 4 minutes or golden brown. Lightly draw knife through relish to swirl lightly. Sprinkle top with chopped parsley as desired.
Serves: 2 large portions
