Ingredients

1 kg	potatoes such as Rooster, peeled and thinly sliced
15 g	melted butter
200 g	streaky bacon, thinly sliced or back bacon if you feel extravagant
100 g	Gruyere cheese, grated
	salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F/220°C/Gas mark 7. Butter a 9 inch ovenproof non stick baking dish.

Arrange the bacon slices into the bottom and the sides of the greased pan. Make sure some of the strips of bacon overhang the edge of the dish slightly.

Dry the washed, peeled and sliced Rooster potatoes with a kitchen towel. Take about one third of the tatties and place these slices over the bacon. Season and sprinkle with about a third of the grated Gruyere cheese. Repeat this step so that two more layers of tattie and cheese are in the dish.

Now fold over the overhanging bacon onto the top layer of potatoes and cheese. Place the dish in the oven and bake uncovered for 50 minutes.

Before removing the potato, cheese and bacon pie from the oven ensure it is cooked throughout by testing the tatties by piercing a knife through the pie. The potatoes should feel soft and the knife gently pass through the dish.

Note:
Other cheeses could be used for this potato, cheese and bacon pie recipe but the harder gruyere cheese melts at the right time with the potatoes and blends well to give a mild nutty taste.
