mozerella & bacon potato bake with cabbage
Hi, I don't suppose you could tell me how you make this please? I have all those ingredients in the fridge and it sounds like it could be rather delicious“You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”0 -

fry onions and some chopped up bacon (i use the cheap 'bacon pieces') slice some potatoes really thinly, i leave the skins on. take an oven proof dish and start with a layer of the bacon and onion, then a layer of potatoes, putting in some mozerella and/or a few blobs of philadephia (i use extra light) as you want. season as you go and when you get near the top just pour over some milk, so its about a quarter of the way up the dish. top with some cheese or breadcrumbs and put in the oven, covered, on a fairly low light for about an hour. cook uncovered for the last 15 or 20 mins. serve with veg or crusty bread.. very cheap and delicious and you really can use whatever you have in!- prior planning prevents poor performance!
