Layer half of the potatoes at the bottom of a 17x27 cm refractory dish
Fry the onion in olive oil until it's soft and set it aside
Use the remaining oil in the pan to cook the ground beef, breaking it up with a fork as it cooks until it loses its red color
Add the cooked onion, garlic, tomato sauce, cinnamon, salt, and pepper to the cooked ground beef and stir well
Spread this mixture over the potatoes
Top with the remaining potatoes
Beat the eggs and mix with milk
