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.

Number Of Ingredients 5

900 g potatoes
50 g butter
3 leeks
200 g grated cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 220°C.
  • Boil potatoes. Cut leeks into 1 cm slices. Melt 1/2 of the butter in a pan and cook leeks for about 10 minutes.
  • Drain and mash potatoes with the other 1/2 of butter, the egg and 3/4 of the cheese.
