Cheesy Crunchy Potato
This is a recipe i remember mum made alot as we were growing up. Its one of those lovely comfort foods that is perfect for a cold winters night. Its great either with cold meat like silverside or with hot meat. The crunchy bits on the side of the dish are the best bit i think were often argued about. I think it maybe an adaptation of an alison holst recipe but not sure. If you want to make a smaller amount just adjust the quantities. This really isn't a dieters friend.
