Treat your ingredients with care...
- Potatoes — Make sure to slice the potatoes thinly and evenly to ensure even cooking throughout the dish.
- Onions — Caramelizing the onions slowly over low heat will bring out their natural sweetness and enhance the flavor of the dish.
- Cheese — Opt for a sharp cheddar cheese for a stronger flavor, or experiment with other types of cheese such as Gruyere or Emmental for a different twist.
- Fresh herbs — Use either thyme or rosemary to add a fragrant and aromatic element to the dish.
- Breadcrumbs — For a crispy and golden crust, use fresh breadcrumbs or panko instead of store-bought ones.
Tips & Tricks
- To save time, you can use a mandoline slicer to quickly and evenly slice the potatoes.
- For a variation, add a layer of cooked bacon or ham between the potato and onion layers.
- Serve the Pan Haggerty with a dollop of sour cream or a side of tangy pickles for added flavor.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or enjoyed cold for a delicious lunch the next day.
- Experiment with different types of cheese to create your own unique flavor combinations.
