Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams mashed potatoes
- 200 grams white cabbage
- 100 grams carrots, grated
- 100 grams frozen peas
- 3 spring onions, finely sliced
- 2 eggs
- 30 grams butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 100 grams cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) and lightly grease a square or rectangular baking tin (approx. 20cm x 20cm).
Finely shred the cabbage and blanch it in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, grated carrots, blanched cabbage, frozen peas, and sliced spring onions.
Add the salt, black pepper, and eggs to the vegetable mixture. Mix thoroughly to combine.
Melt the butter in a small pan and stir in the flour to form a paste. Cook for 1 minute, then slowly add it to the vegetable mixture, mixing it in well.
Stir in 80 grams of the grated cheddar cheese, reserving 20 grams for the topping.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking tin and level the surface.
Sprinkle the reserved cheddar cheese over the top and drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil evenly across the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crisp.
Allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before slicing into portions.
Serve warm as a side dish or on its own with a fresh salad.
