Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 lbs potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
9 ounces bacon, cut into strips
2 ounces butter
4 onions, finely sliced
1 pinch sugar
5 ounces cheddar cheese, grated
2 tomatoes, sliced
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and cook the potatoes until soft. Drain and mash.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, heat and cook the bacon in half the butter and the oil in a frying pan until just beginning to brown and crisp. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon.
  • Add the onions to the pan. Add seasoning and the sugar. Fry gently until the onions are soft and caramelized. Take care not to allow them to burn.
  • Return the bacon to the pan and stir evenly through the onions. Add a little broth or water to de-glaze the pan and then tip the mixture into a heatproof dish.
  • Add the remaining butter and 4oz of the cheese to the potato. Season and mix well. Preheat the broiler to high.
  • Spoon the mixture over the onions and bacon, scatter with the remaining cheese and top with the slices of tomato.
  • Place under a hot grill until the cheese is melted and brown. Serve.
