Recipe
-
Remember to defrost your meat. Defrost your meat in the fridge and use within 24 hours, or in a microwave on ‘defrost’ directly before use.
This recipe works perfectly with frozen meat. Check what you have in your freezer and defrost meat thoroughly before cooking.
-
Chop into bitesize chunks and boil or steam the potatoes until just tender, drain and set aside until cool enough to handle.
-
In a large bowl, coat the potatoes in oil and season with salt and pepper.
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) mark 6 and spoon the potatoes onto a preheated oven tray. Roast the potatoes for around 20-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. When cool enough to handle, spread the roasted potato bites out on a bowl or plate and sprinkle with salt.
-
Mix together your chosen filling (see below) and spread across the warm potatoes.
-
Turkey and corn topping
Combine the chopped turkey meat and remaining ingredients in a medium bowl. Spoon the filling onto the potatoes and add any additional toppings or sauces of your choice.
-
Bacon and cheese topping
Cook the bacon in a large frying pan until crisp, drain on kitchen paper and chop finely.
Grate the hard cheese and sprinkle over the potatoes. Place back into the oven to melt for 2-3 minutes. Mix the sour cream/crème fraiche with the mustard and black pepper, then once the potatoes and cheese have cooled slightly, spoon across the top. Add any remaining garnishes.
-
Cheesy caramelised onion topping
Sauté the onions on a low heat in a frying pan with the butter. Once soft and golden, add 2 tsp of sugar or honey and stir through until caramelised.
Grate the hard cheese and sprinkle over the potatoes. Place back into the oven to melt for 2-3 minutes. Mix the sour cream/crème fraiche with the mustard and black pepper, then once the potatoes and cheese have cooled slightly, spoon across the top. Spoon the caramelised onion across the top
