Categories     Potatoes

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds of russet potatoes, peeled and sliced very thin
1 medium size onion, peeled and cut in half, and sliced very thin
salt and pepper to taste (light on the pepper)
4 teaspoons of minced garlic
1 cup of grated cheese, divided
2/3 cup of sour cream, whipping cream, or milk (i use a combination of all three!)
1/4 cup parmesan grated fresh
pam spray

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.

Tips:

  • Boil the potatoes until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and fall apart in the salad.
  • Use a variety of bell peppers for added flavor and color. Red, yellow, and orange bell peppers are all good choices.
  • Be sure to dice the bell peppers and onion finely. This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the salad.
  • Use a light hand with the mayonnaise. Too much mayonnaise will make the salad heavy and greasy.
  • Season the salad to taste with salt, pepper, and chili powder. You can also add other spices, such as cumin or garlic powder, to taste.
  • Chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the salad with a dollop of sour cream or guacamole on top. You can also garnish the salad with chopped cilantro or green onions.

Conclusion:

Bonnie's Mexican potato salad is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover potatoes, and it can also be made ahead of time. This salad is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
