    Recipe



    Make Potato Crust and bake while you are preparing pie mixture.

    In a small bowl, beat together 1/2 teaspoon salt, eggs, milk, pepper, and paprika: set aside.

    In a frying pan over medium heat, saute onions, garlic, and 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt for 5 minutes. Add thyme, basil, parsley and cauliflower; cook, covered, for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

    Layer baked potato crust with half of Cheddar cheese, then herbs and cauliflower, then remaining cheese. Pour milk mixture over the top and lightly dust with paprika. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until set. Remove from oven and serve.

    Potato Crust:
    2 firmly packed cups grated raw potatoes
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 egg, beaten
    1/4 cup grated onion
    Vegetable oil

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Oil a 9-inch pie pan. Place raw potatoes in a colander. Salt potatoes and let set for 10 minutes. Squeeze out the excess water.

    In a medium bowl, combine potatoes, egg, and onion. Pat potato mixture into prepared pie pan, building up the sides of the crust with lightly floured fingers. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown (after the first 20 minutes brush the crust with vegetable oil to crispen it). Remove from oven. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees.
