Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Peel and slice potatoes into 1/4-inch rounds. Toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange in a baking dish and roast for 15 minutes until just tender.
Step 2
While potatoes roast, peel and slice plantains into 1/2-inch rounds. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Fry plantains until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Set aside.
Step 3
Spread the 1 lb shredded beef evenly over the roasted potatoes. Top with 1 cup shredded cheese.
Step 4
Bake for 10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with fried plantains and chopped parsley or red chili if desired.
