Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

100g butter , plus extra for greasing
100g smoked bacon , cut into lardons
2kg large potatoes , thinly sliced (a mandolin is ideal)
300g white onions , finely sliced
500ml fresh chicken stock

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and grease a large casserole dish. Melt the butter in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Toss in the bacon and season really well. Cook until golden and crisp, about 5 mins.
  • In a large bowl, gently mix the potatoes with the onions, bacon and some more seasoning. Spoon the mixture into the prepared dish and pat it all down, pouring over the stock.
  • Bake in the centre of the oven for 1 hr 45 mins, covering the potatoes after an hour to stop them getting too dark. You should be able to push a knife through the potatoes with little resistance when the dish is cooked.
