Bacon, Potato and Cheese Tart image

A great side dish with almost any meat. My grandmother used to make this using Swiss cheese. I've found that using Fontina cheese adds better flavor without those Swiss cheese strings.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 tablespoon butter
18 slices bacon
1 ½ pounds baking potatoes, peeled and sliced
1 ¼ cups shredded fontina cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Coat an 8 inch round baking dish with the butter. Arrange bacon in a spiral fashion in the baking dish, draping ends of the slices over the pan edge to fold over filling.
  • Arrange 1/3 of the potatoes over bacon, and sprinkle with 1/3 Fontina cheese. Repeat layers with remaining potatoes and cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Fold bacon over filling to form the upper layer.
  • Bake uncovered in the preheated oven 1 hour, or until potatoes are tender. Drain any drippings, and cut into wedges to serve.
