Pastel de Papas con Tres Quesos (Potato Cake with Three Cheeses) a Classic Peruvian recipe for an accompaniment of potatoes cooked in a cream and cheese sauce until the mixture is set, almost like a cake.
Ingredients:
2kg potatoes
200g paria cheese (or similar), sliced into sheets or grated
300g Roquefort cheese, crumbled
4 tbsp freshly-grated Parmesan cheese
500ml double cream
4 tbsp evaporated milk
2 tbsp butter
salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
1 garlic clove
Method:
Grease a baking dish with butter. Split the garlic clove in half and rub all over the baking dish.
Peel the potatoes then cut into thin slices and arrange half in the base of the baking dish. Arrange the paria cheese on top of the potatoes then layer the remaining potatoes on top.
Combine the cream and Roquefort cheese in a pan. Heat gently, whisking, until the mixture is creamy then add the evaporated milk and Parmesan cheese. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
Pour evenly over the potatoes, ensuring that the contents of the baking dish are completely covered with the cheese sauce. Dot the top with butter then transfer to an oven pre-heated to 180°C and bake for about 50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
Serve hot.
