Crispy Potato Pie
Filled With Cheddar, Red Leicester, Spring Onions & Tomato
Ingrediënten
Serves 4 | Total 1 Hour 30 Minutes
- 1 kg potatoes
- 350 g ripe tomatoes
- 1 bunch of spring onions
- 50 g Cheddar cheese
- 50 g red Leicester cheese
- 1 lemon
- 70 g rocket
Instructies
- Peel the potatoes, chop into even-sized chunks and cook in a large pan of boiling salted water for 15 minutes, or until tender.
- Meanwhile, halve the tomatoes, squeeze out the seeds and dice the flesh.
- Toss with a good pinch of sea salt and sit the tomatoes in a sieve to drain.
- Trim and finely slice the spring onions.
- Coarsely grate the cheeses.
- Squeeze out any excess water from the tomatoes and mix with the spring onions and cheese.
- Lay out a 40cm x 30cm sheet of greaseproof paper.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Drain the potatoes, then mash really well with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and season to perfection.
- Tip the mash on to the sheet of greaseproof.
- Once cool enough to handle, flatten out with oiled hands to a rectangle about 1cm thick.
- Spread the tomato mixture over one half, leaving a 2cm gap around the edge, then in one swift move use the paper to help you flip the other half of the mash on top.
- Unpeel the top half of greaseproof, then use the paper to help you slide the whole thing into a 20cm x 30cm baking tray.
- Rip off the overhanging half of the paper, then fold and press in the edges of the mash and patch up any gaps, using a knife to help you smooth it out and make a pattern, if you like.
- Brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and bake for 50 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
- Slice and serve with lemon-dressed rocket.
