Bored of the same old potatoes on your plate? Or want something different to serve as a side dish when entertaining? This is perfect! Best of all it’s low fat – just 0.8g fat per serving and 185 kcal.
Serves 4
450g or 1lb potatoes
1 onion finely diced
600ml or 1 pint skimmed milk
1 bay leaf
50g or 2oz fresh breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
salt and black pepper
Preheat the oven to 180 fan forced.
Wash and peel the potatoes and then cut into 5mm (1/4 inch) dice.
Place potatoes in the bottom of an oven dish, then add the onion and season with salt and pepper.
Place the milk into a saucepan and add the bay leaf and garlic. Heat the milk until boiling and then pour onto the potatoes.
Bake in the oven for 30-40 mins and then remove from the oven and sprinkle the breadcrumbs and parsley over the top.
Return the oven for a further 10-15 mins until golden brown.
If you wanted to, a handful of finely grated parmesan in the breadcrumb and parsley topping would be great – but obviously increase the fat and calorie content.
