Ingredients

Metric - US Customary
  • 500 g potatoes peeled and cut into chunks
  • 30 g butter
  • 150 g cheese grated, I use a strong mature cheddar but any strong tasty cheese will do.
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg

DISCLAIMER

I recommend using the Metric measurements (instead of cups & spoons) for more accuracy and better results.

Instructions

  • Firstly preheat your oven to 200ºC
  • Boil your potatoes in salted water until soft, always put potatoes in cold water and bring to the boil.
  • In the meantime gently fry your onions in the butter until soft, do not brown them.
  • Drain the potatoes and replace in the pan and add your onions, vegetable oil and the egg. Mix together but do not mash to a paste, leave it nice and chunky.
  • You can either place the whole mixture in an oven proof dish or in individual ramekins and bake for 20 - 30 minutes until golden and crunchy on top.
  • This very similar to a 1960’s School Dinner Classic ‘Cheese & Potato Pie’ but that usually had sliced tomatoes on the top.

I love this recipe and make it many times. On the go at the moment for lunch I will add a little cornbeef today as I have some in the fridge.
I also mix the CHEESE with the potatoes and also great extra on the top.
