It takes a lot of time to make, but it's quite good. INGREDIENTS (serves 3-4) 3 cups packed, grated raw potato (about 3 large potatoes) 1 tsp salt 4 eggs 1 1/4 cups onion, grated (or more to taste) 2 Tbsp oil 1 garlic clove, crushed (or more to taste) 3 Tbsp butter 1 bunch broccoli, broken into small florets 1/2 tsp dried basil thyme 2 cups grated Cheddar cheese 1 cup milk paprika PROCEDURE (1) Drain the potatoes and squeeze dry. Add 1/2 tsp salt, 1 egg, and 1/4 cup (or more to taste) grated onion. (2) Pat potato mixture into well-oiled 10-inch pie pan and bake at 400 deg. F for 30 minutes. Brush potato crust with oil, reduce oven temperature to 375 deg. F and bake for another 5-10 minutes, until crust is brown. (3) While crust is baking, saut' 1 cup chopped onion and garlic in butter. If you like a lot of onion and garlic, use more. Add broccoli, 1/2 tsp salt, basil, a dash of thyme, and cook covered, stirring occasionally, for a few minutes. (4) Spread half of cheese over baked crust. Top with saut'ed vegetables and remaining cheese. (5) Beat together remaining 3 eggs and milk, and pour over vegetable/cheese mixture. Sprinkle paprika on top. (6) Bake at 375 deg. F for 35 to 40 minutes until cus- tard is set. NOTES This recipe can be made in two stages: you can make the crust in advance and then can make the vegetable topping and bake it later. An electric grater is a real time-saver for the crust ingredients. RATING Difficulty: moderate. Time: 1 1/2-2 hours. Precision: no need to measure.
