Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 1 hour
Serves: 2 people
Ingredients
675g waxy potatoes, e.g. King Edward or Maris Piper, skin on and very finely sliced
15g butter
1 small onion, peeled and sliced
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C,160°C Fan, Gas Mark 4.
Rinse the potatoes in cold running water, drain and pat dry in a thick tea towel or absorbent kitchen paper.
Grease a shallow ovenproof dish (approximately 20cm x 15cm and 2.5cm depth) with half the butter and place a layer of potatoes over the base of the dish. Top with a layer of onions and season.
Repeat until all the vegetables are used, finishing with a neat potato layer and press down firmly.
Pour over the stock and dot with the remaining butter. Bake in the oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour. Cover with foil if browning too quickly.
