  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Ingredients:
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil or butter.
  • Wash, peel, and slice the potatoes into thin rounds.
  • Cook the Ground Beef:

  • Season the beef with paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir well and set aside.
  • Make the Sauce:
  • In a bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and milk until smooth.
  • Assemble the Casserole:
  • Spread a thin layer of the soup mixture at the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Arrange a layer of potato slices over the sauce.
  • Spoon a layer of the cooked ground beef over the potatoes, followed by a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
  • Repeat the layers (soup, potatoes, beef, cheese) until all ingredients are used, finishing with a generous layer of cheese on top.
  • Bake the Casserole:
  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
  • Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
