Notes
Using instant mashed potatoes makes this recipe even quicker, but if you have leftover mashed potatoes from yesterday's dinner those would be even better.
Add or substitute ingredients in the filling to your taste. You could add to the mashed potato cheese, sour cream and broccoli, for instance.
Variations
This recipe can be used to prepare tartiflette, a dish or potatoes, sliced very thin and boiled, baked with cheese and crispy bacon. Substitute 4 cup of potato mash with 3-4 potatoes peeled and very thinly sliced, boiled 3-4 minutes and drained. Cut the cheese into long thing strips instead of grating it.
Alterantively, you can peel and boil the potatoes, wait until they cool a little, then slice them thin.
