1. 1

   If using dried beef that is not pre-desalted, soak the dried beef in cold water for at least 24 hours, changing the water every 4-6 hours to remove excess salt. Then, boil the desalted dried beef in fresh water until tender, about 30-40 minutes. Drain and shred the beef.

   约 40分钟

   烹饪提示： Ensure the dried beef is thoroughly desalted to avoid an overly salty dish.

2. 2

   While the beef is cooking, prepare the cassava topping. Place the peeled and chunked cassava in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until very tender, about 20-25 minutes.

   约 25分钟

   烹饪提示： The cassava should be soft enough to easily mash.

3. 3

   Drain the cooked cassava well. Mash it thoroughly with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Stir in the milk, butter, cream cheese, and salt until well combined and creamy.

   约 10分钟

   烹饪提示： For an extra smooth puree, you can pass the mashed cassava through a food mill or use a blender with a small amount of the cooking liquid.

4. 4

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

   约 10分钟

5. 5

   For the beef filling, heat the olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add the chopped yellow onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

   约 5分钟

6. 6

   Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

   约 1分钟

   烹饪提示： Be careful not to burn the garlic.

7. 7

   Stir in the shredded dried beef, diced tomato, and tomato paste. Cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

   约 7分钟

   烹饪提示： If the mixture seems too dry, add a splash of water or beef broth.

8. 8

   Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley, chives, and black pepper.

   约 1分钟

9. 9

   Spread the beef filling evenly in the bottom of a medium baking dish (approximately 9x13 inches or similar).

   约 2分钟

10. 10

    Carefully spoon the cassava topping over the beef filling, spreading it to cover completely. Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the top.

    约 3分钟

    烹饪提示： Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to create an even layer.

11. 11

    Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and bubbly.

    约 25分钟

    烹饪提示： For extra browning, you can briefly place the dish under the broiler for the last few minutes, watching carefully.

12. 12

    Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

    约 5分钟

    烹饪提示： This allows the casserole to set slightly, making it easier to serve.
