This is a delicious way of using up any leftover cabbage and even tastes amazing reheated the next day fried like bubble and squeak.  I enjoy eating this with sausages and a fried egg.

Ingredients:

• 8 potatoes, peeled and sliced
• 150g / 5oz savoy cabbage, shredded
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 4 lean bacon rashers, finely chopped
• 190g / 6oz grated cheese
• Salt and pepper

Method:

1. Cut the potatoes into thick slices using a food processor or mandolin.  Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil and cook the potatoes for 5mins, add the cabbage to the pan and contiue to cook for another 5mins, or until the cabbage is soft.  Drain well and set aside.
2. Preheat the oven to 180ºc / Gas 4.  Heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat and cook the onion and bacon for around 5-8mins, or until softened and golden.  Remove from the heat and add to the potato mixture.
3. Add half the cheese and combine altogether, season with salt and pepper. 
4. Spoon the mixture into a baking dish, sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bake in the oven for around 35-40mins, or until the cheese is melted and golden.  Serve immediately.
