A new one for the baked pasta threads. This is one of the Swiss national dishes, and also a good way of using up left overs.
500 g boiled potatoes cut into 1/2 inch cubes
200 g pasta (penne, maccaroni or similar) - cooked
200 g Swiss mountain cheese - I like Appenzeller best, but Gruyere or Raclette are also ok. It needs to be fairly strong tasting anyway.
Mix them all together and put in the oven at anywhere between 150 and 210 C until everything is well warmed through and the cheese has melted.
In the meantuime you put 2 tblsp of butter and two large sliced onions in a frying pan and fry until golden brown. Then add 50 g milk, 50 g of cream and salt to taste into the pan with the onions (or a bit more, I usually just splosh a some in) and pour it over the cheese/potatoe/pasta mix.
Serve with apple sauce.
As usual it tried to run away when I took the photo, but it tasted very good! There seems to be something about the combination of onion and apple that just appeals to me....
