Prep time
25 mins
Ingredients
- Onion: 300g white onions, finely sliced
- Butter: 100g butter, plus extra for greasing
- Chicken Stock: 500ml fresh chicken stock
- Potato: 2kg large potatoes, thinly sliced (a mandolin is ideal)
- Smoked Bacon: 100g smoked bacon, cut into lardons
Directions
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and grease a large casserole dish. Melt the butter in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Toss in the bacon and season really well. Cook until golden and crisp, about 5 mins.
- In a large bowl, gently mix the potatoes with the onions, bacon and some more seasoning. Spoon the mixture into the prepared dish and pat it all down, pouring over the stock.
- Bake in the centre of the oven for 1 hr 45 mins, covering the potatoes after an hour to stop them getting too dark. You should be able to push a knife through the potatoes with little resistance when the dish is cooked.
