CHEESE AND POTATO PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Bring a pan of well-salted water to the boil.
• Add on the potatoes whole and unpeeled and boil until cooked, this should take around 30-35 minutes.
• Halfway through cooking the potatoes peel the onion and drop it into the pan.
• Drain the potatoes, prick with a fork and peel off the skin.
• Mash the potatoes or pass through a potato ricer.
• Add the butter, almost all of the cheese and the mustard and mix well.
• Beat the egg with the milk.
• Add in the beaten egg and milk, then mix well, you should have quite a "wet" mash.
• Chop the onion into a 1cm dice and mix that through the potatoes.
• Have a taste here and add more salt if required although it should not be!
• Place the mash into a greased or buttered casserole dish (around 0.5 litres in size) and top with the remaining cheese.
• Slice the tomato into 3-4mm thick slices.
• Add slices of tomatoes to the top.

BONNIE'S POTATO AND ONION PIE

Steps:

• 1. Cook's Tip: A word about cheese. I use jack cheese, fontina, gruyere cheese, cheddar, but I like fontina and jack cheese the best. For the milk mixture, I use a combination of sour cream, heavy cream and 2% milk, which is what I had on hand. You can use all milk, or all cream, or mix it up. Use what you like. Experiment to your hearts content. This is a fun recipe for that!
• 2. Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 10 inch glass pie dish with Pam.
• 3. Scatter 2 teaspoons of garlic on bottom of Pam sprayed pie dish. Put half of the sliced potatoes on top of the garlic, overlapping the slices. Add half of the onion slices. Add salt and pepper (go easy on the pepper) Sprinkle 1/3 cup of cheese (your choice) over the onions evenly. Repeat the layer of garlic, potatoes, onions, and salt, pepper. Add the milk mixture evenly over the top, and then add the remaining 2/3 cup of cheese of choice, plus, the 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese.
• 4. Cover the pie with foil and bake 30 minutes, uncover and bake 30 minutes more. You may want to do a low broil to brown the top. Cut into wedges to serve. Enjoy!
• 5. Cook's Note: I also have a Tater and Onion Pie with ham that is another variation of this recipe and it is posted.
