Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup minced onion
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 pound peeled and sliced raw potatoes (about 2 cups)
  • 1 cup sliced Polish sausage
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup Swiss cheese, grated
  • 1 (3 to 4 cup) baking dish, about 2-inches deep (mine is round)

Steps

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 375° F. Cook onion slowly in butter about 5 minutes, until tender but not browned.
  • 2
    Drop potatoes in boiling salted water and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, until barely done. Drain thoroughly.
  • 3
    Butter the baking dish. Spread half of the potatoes in the bottom, then half of the onions, then all of the sausage slices, then the rest of the onions and finally the rest of the potatoes.
  • 4
    Mix the eggs, cream, salt and pepper well. Pour over the potato dish, shaking pan gently to distribute liquid.
  • 5
    Sprinkle the grated cheese over all. Bake 30 to 40 minutes in upper third of the oven until top is nicely browned. Allow to sit on a cooling rack a few minutes to set up before serving.
