Creamy layered potato cassarole

Original recipe makes 8 servings

3 pounds potatoes, peeled and sliced lengthwise about 1/8 inch thick

In a separate medium bowl, combine the ham, broccoli and 1 1/2 cups of the Swiss cheese. Mix well and spread 1/3 of this mixture over the potatoes in the baking dish.

Bubble and Squeak

Ingredients
450g/1lb potatoes, unpeeled
salt and pepper
70g/2 1/2 oz butter
250g/8oz cabbage, shredded
3 tbsp water
3-4 tbsp sunflower oil
1 onion, chopped

DIRECTIONS
Cook the potatoes for 25 minutes in a pan of lightly salted boiling water, then drain, peel and dice.

Place them in a bowl with 55g/2oz of the butter and mash until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, place the cabbage, water and remaining butter in a large heavy based saucepan and cover. Cook gently for 10 minutes, or until tender. Mix the cabbage and mashed potato together and season with more salt and pepper.

Heat half the oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the potato and cabbage mixture and press down with the back of a wooden spon to make a flat, even cake.

Cook over a medium heat for 15 minutes until golden brown on the underside and place on a large plate. Add the remaining oil and cook again on the other side for 10 minutes.

Transfer to a plate, cut into wedges and serve.

Damn Potatoes again!!! Not intentional, but obviously subliminal.

Bubble and squeak was always a leftovers dish, not something you'd make from scratch. Flavours develop in foods overnight.

Yep tis true, but if you've never had it, a recipe comes in handy.

I've never had it, but it seems similar to potato pancakes. Just add cabbage.
