  9. Layer the potato slices in a baking dish, spreading them out evenly.
  10. Spread the cooked onions and bell peppers over the layered potatoes.
  11. Add the Cheese and Egg Mixture: Grate the cheese evenly over the top of the potato, onion, and bell pepper layers.
  12. In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt, pepper, paprika, and oregano.
  13. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the grated cheese.
  14. Bake the Dish: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven.
  15. Bake for about 50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
