Ingredients
Instructions
STEP 1:
Grease a small oven dish with the margarine.
STEP 2:
Par-boil the sliced potatoes in a saucepan for about 5 minutes (so they become only a tiny bit softer than raw).
STEP 3:
Make a layer of the sliced potatoes at the bottom of the oven dish.
STEP 4:
Layer on top some sliced mushrooms and a handful of leeks.
STEP 5:
Add a sprinkle of the herbs and a good pinch of salt & pepper.
STEP 6:
Get a heaped tablespoon of flour (doesn’t need to be sieved) and scatter over the layer. Add another tablespoon if necessary so that you can see a thin layer of flour.
STEP 7:
Put on top 3-4 knobs of margarine, scattered evenly around.
STEP 8:
Repeat this layering, remembering to add the margarine and flour each time, until you reach the top of the dish.
STEP 9:
Finish with a final layer of potato.
STEP 10:
Pour over the top a good glug of milk, probably about 1/2 pint (depending on the size of your dish…this applies to a medium sized oven dish) until you can see it swimming if you tip the dish slightly.
STEP 11:
Add a final sprinkle of herbs to decorate.
STEP 12:
Put in the oven at about 170 degrees (fan oven) for 45 minutes. Add a good layering of cheese over the top after about 30 minutes for a delicious cheesy bake.
STEP 13:
ENJOY!
