Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 1 portion of Derf’s Herbed Onion Potatoes
- 4 slices of Swiss cheese
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup grated Romano cheese
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup fresh sage, chopped
- A dash of rosemary
- A pinch of thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat: Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, spray a 9-inch deep pie pan with cooking spray (or grease with butter) to prevent sticking.
-
Prepare Potatoes: Mix together the leftover potatoes from Derf’s Herbed Onion Potatoes recipe with the Swiss cheese. Spread this mixture evenly in the prepared pie pan.
-
Prepare Egg Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, grated Romano cheese, pepper sauce, fresh herbs (sage, rosemary, and thyme), garlic salt, salt, and pepper until well combined.
-
Combine Ingredients: Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes and cheese in the pie pan, ensuring that it is evenly distributed.
-
Bake: Place the pie pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the pie is nice and puffy, with a slightly browned top.
-
Let it Rest: Once baked, remove the Potato Cheese Pie from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. This resting period allows the pie to set and makes it easier to slice and enjoy.
