POTATO PIE



Potato Pie image

I thought I better post this so that I would know where it is every time I go to make it. I am tired of searching through umpteem books each time. It is my husband's favorite dish and if I have to be honest I really enjoy it as well. It's a supper dish found in both Monmouthshire and the Welsh counties, traditionally served with pickled beets or pickled red cabbage. We like it with crusty brown bread and pickled beets. It's delicious!

Categories     Potato

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters
1/4 pint milk
1 ounce butter
4 ounces grated strong cheddar cheese (or similar cheese)
salt and white pepper
2 -3 ounces white breadcrumbs, lightly crisped
melted butter, to brush over the top

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes in salted water until cooked.
  • Preheat oven to 425*F.
  • Drain the potatoes well, add the milk and butter and mash until smooth, then stir in the cheese and seasoning.
  • Butter a 1 1/2 to 2 pint pie dish and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs, pressing them to the base and sides with the back of a spoon.
  • Spoon the potato and cheese mixture into the dish and rough up the top with a fork.
  • Brush with the melted butter.
  • Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Serve with pickled beets or red cabbage and thick slices of crusty brown bread (buttered of course!).

Tips:

  • Russet potatoes are the best choice for this recipe because they are starchy and hold their shape well.
  • Be sure to peel the potatoes before boiling them. This will help the potatoes cook evenly.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are tender, but not mushy. You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork.
  • Once the potatoes are boiled, drain them and let them cool slightly. This will make them easier to handle.
  • Use a large bowl to mix the potatoes, flour, salt, and pepper. This will help ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Gently fold the beaten egg into the potato mixture. Be careful not to overmix, as this will make the potatoes tough.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot skillet. Cook the potato nuggets for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the potato nuggets immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Potato nugget pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a potluck. The crispy potato nuggets are coated in a flavorful sauce and baked until golden brown. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
