Onion Potato Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Gently squeeze potatoes to remove excess water. Melt 5 tablespoons butter; add to potatoes along with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Press in bottom and up sides of a greased 9-in. pie plate to form a crust. Bake at 425° for 25-30 minutes or until edges are browned. Cool to room temperature. , In a saucepan over medium heat, saute the onion and red pepper in remaining butter until tender, about 6-8 minutes. Spoon into crust; sprinkle with cheese. Combine the eggs, milk and remaining salt; pour over onion mixture. , Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute onions in oil until soft but not browned; drain well. In a large bowl, whisk eggs. Stir in the bread crumbs, cheese, parsley and onions. , Place in a greased 10-in. pie plate. Bake at 350° until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. In a small bowl, mix the grated cheddar with the crème fraîche, then set aside. Grease and lightly flour a ceramic or metal pie dish, or shallow cake tin, about 23cm wide. Roll out two-thirds of the pastry on a lightly floured surface until large enough to line the tin with a little overhang.
• Place a layer of potatoes over the tart and scatter over some of the sliced onions, spring onions and chunks of cheese. Season with salt, pepper, nutmeg and paprika. Layer over more potatoes, scatter again with more onions and cheese, then splodge over half the crème fraîche mix. Repeat with 2 more layers (the potatoes will come up way above the pastry), pushing the filling down slightly, then finish with the remaining crème fraîche mix.
• Roll the remaining pastry so it fits over the potatoes. Brush the sides with egg, then lay the pastry over the top. Squeeze the edges together and trim with a knife. Crimp the sides and brush the top all over with egg. Place the pie on a baking sheet, bake for 30 mins, reduce the temperature to 180C/ fan 160C/gas 4, then carry on baking for 1 hr until golden. Leave the pie to rest for 10 mins, then serve straight from the dish cut into slices, with a salad or baked beans on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a 10" oven proof skillet, melt butter in oven.
• Add potatoes and onion.
• Bake, stirring once, for 15 to 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender crisp.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl stir together cheese, parsley, milk, eggs, salt, and pepper.
• Pour over baked potatoes and onion.
• Arrange tomato slices over eggs.
• Return to oven; continue baking for 17 to 22 minutes or until eggs are set and lightly browned.

Steps:

• Peel, halve and boil potatoes until mostly tender. Cool and slice.
• Peel and thinly slice apples.
• Melt butter in large skillet and sauté onion, leek and apples about 15 minutes, until just tender. Do not overcook.
• Add potato slices, salt, pepper and nutmeg and toss, light, trying not to break up potatoes much.
• Place pie crust in glass pie plate, add half the mixture, sprinkle to cover with cheese and add other half mixture.
• Place other pie crust on top, crimping edges and piercing to vent.
• You can brush with egg wash if you wish.
• Bake in 350°F oven for 35-40 minutes, covering crust edges with foil after 20 minutes.
• Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
• Hint: I go a bit heavy on the nutmeg.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• In a buttered 13x9 inch baking dish, place 1/3 of the potatoes and 1/3 of the onions; sprinkle with salt and pepper and dot with 1/3 of the butter.
• Do this twice more.
• Cover and bake for 45 minutes or until tender.
• Uncover and bake until top is lightly browned.
• Remove from oven, let cool for 5 minutes.
• Loosen around edge and invert on a heat-proof platter.
• Sprinkle cheese and cayenne on top and return to oven to brown cheese.

Steps:

• Make the pastry by the usual method, then halve it, form each half into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and leave in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Meanwhile, peel and dice the potatoes, put them in a saucepan with plenty of cold water, and bring to the boil. Boil gently for 5-10 minutes, or until the cubes are cooked but still retain their shape. Drain and leave to cool.
• In a large bowl, combine the green onions, cheese, slightly cooled potato, and parsley. Bind with the creme fraiche and season with salt and pepper. Roll out one of the pastry discs, cut 8 rough circles slightly larger than the indents, and push 4 into the first tray to make the bases. Fill each with an eighth of the mixture and put the remaining 4 circles on as lids. Seal the pie edges with the back of a knife, making a little hole in each one. Repeat for the second tray with the other disc and the remaining half of the filling.
• Cook for 20 minutes, by which time the pastry should be firm, beginning to turn gold, but still pale, and let the pies stand a little out of the oven in their trays before easing them out of the molds.

Steps:

• 1. Cook's Tip: A word about cheese. I use jack cheese, fontina, gruyere cheese, cheddar, but I like fontina and jack cheese the best. For the milk mixture, I use a combination of sour cream, heavy cream and 2% milk, which is what I had on hand. You can use all milk, or all cream, or mix it up. Use what you like. Experiment to your hearts content. This is a fun recipe for that!
• 2. Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 10 inch glass pie dish with Pam.
• 3. Scatter 2 teaspoons of garlic on bottom of Pam sprayed pie dish. Put half of the sliced potatoes on top of the garlic, overlapping the slices. Add half of the onion slices. Add salt and pepper (go easy on the pepper) Sprinkle 1/3 cup of cheese (your choice) over the onions evenly. Repeat the layer of garlic, potatoes, onions, and salt, pepper. Add the milk mixture evenly over the top, and then add the remaining 2/3 cup of cheese of choice, plus, the 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese.
• 4. Cover the pie with foil and bake 30 minutes, uncover and bake 30 minutes more. You may want to do a low broil to brown the top. Cut into wedges to serve. Enjoy!
• 5. Cook's Note: I also have a Tater and Onion Pie with ham that is another variation of this recipe and it is posted.

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into cubes. Boil them in slightly salted water until they start to soften. Remove them while still slightly hard and drain thoroughly.
• Mix the potatoes, onion and carrot and place them in the pie crust.
• Dissolve the mushroom stock cube in water then pour it into the pie.
• Beat the eggs with the milk, then pour it into the pie.
• Sprinkle the oregano and aniseed over the potatoes, and then the parmesan cheese over the top.
• Add the pie crust top and bake for around 30 minutes at 170°C.
