Method
 

Directions
  1. In a large skillet, add the oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the cubed potatoes to the pan. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring often, until they turn light golden and start to soften.
  3. Toss in the finely diced onion and green bell pepper. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent.
  4. Stir in the lean ground beef. Cook until it’s thoroughly browned, stirring frequently.
  5. Stir in the tomato paste, minced garlic, and seasonings. Cook for 1 minute.
  6. Pour in the broth, tomato sauce, and cream. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and reduce to medium-low. Cook until the potatoes are tender.
  7. Remove from heat, add the shredded cheese on top, and cover just until the cheese melts.
  8. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley or green onions.

Ensure potatoes are cut into uniform cubes for even cooking and avoid mushy texture. Drain excess fat after browning beef for a lighter dish.
