1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. In a skillet, heat olive oil and cook ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat.

4. Layer cooked beef in the baking dish. Arrange sliced potatoes on top.

5. Sprinkle cheddar and Parmesan cheese over the potatoes. Repeat layers if needed.

6. Pour broth around the edges. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.

7. Remove foil and bake another 15–20 minutes until cheese is bubbly and potatoes are tender.

8. Let rest 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley or chives.

Substitute ground beef with turkey or lentils for a lighter version.
