Necessary Ingredients:
- 500 g of boiled potatoes with skin
- 4 hard-boiled eggs
- 250 g of filet mignon (can be pork or beef, depending on preference)
- 1 tub of creamy fine cheese (can be cottage cheese, ricotta, or another preferred variety)
- 200 g of sour cream
- Oil (for greasing the dish)
- Salt (to taste)
- 1 tub of sour cream (optional, for a more intense flavor)

Preparation Instructions:

1. Prepare the ingredients: Start by peeling the boiled potatoes. It’s important to use boiled potatoes, but not too soft, to avoid them turning into mash. You can choose starchy potatoes for better texture. Cut them into thin slices, about 0.5 cm thick.

2. Hard-boiled eggs: The hard-boiled eggs should be sliced into circular pieces. A useful trick is to use a sharp knife to avoid crumbling. Sprinkle a little salt on the sliced eggs to enhance their flavor.

3. Filet mignon: Cut the filet mignon into thin slices. A helpful technique is to use slightly frozen meat, as it cuts much easier. You can marinate it a bit in olive oil, salt, and pepper for extra flavor.

4. Preparing the dish: Choose a heat-resistant dish and grease it with a thin layer of oil. This will prevent the dish from sticking and make for easier cleaning later on.

5. Assembling the layers: Start by placing a layer of potato slices at the bottom of the dish. Continue with a layer of egg slices, followed by a layer of filet mignon. Then add a layer of fine cheese and a spoon or two of sour cream between each layer. Repeat this procedure until all ingredients are used. Finish with a layer of cheese and a final layer of sour cream to achieve a golden and crispy crust.

6. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the dish in the oven and let it bake for about 20 minutes or until the surface turns golden and appetizing. A trick to check if it's done is to insert a knife in the middle; if it comes out clean, the dish is ready.

7. Serving: You can serve this dish as is or as a side with a fresh salad. A tomato salad with basil and olive oil pairs perfectly, bringing a fresh contrast.

Useful Tips:
- You can experiment with different types of cheese or add herbs like dill or parsley for an extra flavor.
- If you want a healthier version, you can replace the sour cream with Greek yogurt.
- For an even more intense flavor, add some slices of onion or garlic between the layers.
