CHEESY LEEK AND POTATO BAKE



Cheesy Leek and Potato Bake image

A well used recipe in my house-and so easy to make. It's great as a side dish to a main meal, or as a topping on Cottage Pies and suchlike, or quite simply a good comforting supper dish all on its own with some good thick gravy to pour on top. This is actually my husband's favourite way to eat potato. I hope you enjoy it.

CHEESY POTATO LEEK CASSEROLE BAKE

I threw this one together one night when I was in the mood for a new side dish...and I had lots of potatoes and leeks, but didn't feel like making soup. If you're in a hurry, a thawed bag of diced hash brown potatoes works well! (Cook time includes boiling potatoes.)

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons butter, plus more for the dish
2 leeks, halved, thinly sliced and soaked in cold water for 30 minutes
3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves picked
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken stock
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 1/2 cups grated fontina cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an oval baking dish. Drain the leeks and rinse.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the leeks and thyme, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the leeks are softened and golden, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Peel and slice the potatoes into very thin rounds. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Layer half of the potatoes in the buttered dish, then layer half of the cooked leeks over the potatoes. Repeat the layers.
  • Return the skillet to medium heat and add the cream cheese, cream, chicken stock and garlic. Stir together, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Sprinkle with the paprika and some salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and simmer for about 5 minutes so the cheese melts. Pour the cream mixture over the leeks and potatoes and top with the grated cheese.
  • Cover with foil and transfer to the oven. Bake for 40 minutes, then remove the foil and continue baking until the cheese is bubbly and golden, 15 to 20 minutes more. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
