Place the diced potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes.
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the milk and butter, and mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped chives or green onions until well combined. Set aside.
In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper, and cook until the onion is softened.
Stir in the tomato sauce and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Take a scoop of the mashed potato mixture and flatten it into a disk in the palm of your hand. Place a spoonful of the beef filling in the center, then fold the potato mixture over the filling to enclose it, forming a potato cake. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture and beef filling.
Place the stuffed potato cakes on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of each potato cake.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the potato cakes are golden brown and heated through.
Serve hot and enjoy!
