From What’s Cooking
Vegetarian, Jenny Stacey, Parragon, 2000.
Anything with potatoes and cheese as ingredients will tempt
me so when flipping through the pages of What’s
Cooking Vegetarian I came across this old favourite I just had to make it.
It’s a dish that comes in many variations and guises so it’s worthwhile trying
out the variations when I come across them in different books. This particular
variation contained leek.
The potatoes were first boiled and then sliced. A layer of
them was arranged on the bottom of a casserole dish. On top of them went some
sliced leek, some chopped garlic, grated cheddar and mozzarella. A sprinkling
of chopped parsley was also added. These layers were continued until all of the
ingredients were used, ending with a cheese layer.
Milk and cream were mixed (this was a rather rich
variation) and seasonings added. This was then poured over the layers in the
casserole and baked for a little over an hour.
Tasty and filling with the satisfying feeling of indulging
more than you should.
