POTATO BACON PIE

Steps:

• Place the butter, flour, and salt in the food processor, and pulse lightly just until the mixture resembles wet sand.
• Add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each addition of water.
• Keep adding water until the dough just begins to gather into larger clumps.
• Divide the dough in half, and shape each into a disc.
• Cover in aluminum foil or place in a plastic ziptop bag and refrigerate at least half an hour.
• Roll out each half of dough into a 10-12 inch round.
• Drape one of them into a pie plate, return to the refrigerator.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon into crispy bits. Drain on a paper towel and set aside.
• Pour off all the bacon grease except 1 tablespoon, return skillet to heat and add onions.
• Cook for about 5 min or until golden brown.
• Set aside with the bacon.
• Slice the potatoes very thinly, 1/8-1/4 inch slices.
• Take the pie plate with the crust from the refrigerator and layer the potatoes in a circular single layer, slightly overlapping.
• Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with bacon and onions.
• Continue layering until the pie pan is nearly full.
• Microwave the cream until it's simmering, about 1 1/2 minutes and pour the cream over the potatoes.
• Cover the pie with the dough and crimp the edges closed.
• Brush the top and edges of the crust with egg wash. Make a few slits in the center of the top crust, for the steam to escape.
• Bake the pie for 40-55 min. When the potatoes are fork tender, it is done.

POTATO-BACON TORTE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the butter, flour and fine salt in a food processor until the mixture looks like wet sand. Add 8 to 10 tablespoons ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each addition, until the dough just begins to clump together. Divide the dough between 2 resealable plastic bags and pat into disks. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Roll out 1 disk of dough into a 10-inch round on a floured surface. Fit the dough into a 9-inch pie plate and refrigerate.
• Make the filling: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp; drain on paper towels. Let cool, then crumble.
• Bring the cream and thyme sprigs to a bare simmer in a saucepan over low heat. Remove from the heat; let steep 5 minutes. Remove the thyme.
• Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise. Remove the pie plate from the refrigerator. Add a layer of potato slices over the dough in a circular pattern, overlapping; season with kosher salt and pepper and sprinkle with about one-quarter of the bacon. Continue layering until the pan is nearly full. Top evenly with the gruyere. Gently pour the cream over the torte, allowing it to seep down between the potato slices.
• Roll out the remaining disk of dough into a 10-inch round on a floured surface. Lay the dough over the filling; press the edges of the 2 crusts together and crimp them closed. Beat the egg yolk with a splash of water and brush on the top crust. With a sharp knife, cut a few slits in the center of the crust to let steam escape. Put the torte on a baking sheet and bake until the crust is browned and the potatoes are cooked through, 50 minutes to 1 hour. (Cover the edges with foil if they brown too quickly.) Let rest at least 15 minutes before cutting into wedges. Top with thyme leaves.

• In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until just crispy. Drain on paper towel lined plate and set aside. Crumble the bacon when cool to the touch.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat the thyme and cream over low heat to a bare simmer. Turn off the heat and let steep for about 5 minutes. Remove the thyme sprigs.
• Remove the pie pan from the refrigerator. Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise and then finely slice the potatoes. Working in circles, arrange the potato slices in the pie crust, stopping to season each layer with salt, pepper, and about 1/4 of the crumbled bacon. Continue layering until the pie pan is nearly full. Top with an even layer of the cheese and gently pour cream around and over the entire pie, allowing it to seep down between the potato slices. (You may not use all the cream.)
• Roll out the remaining disk of refrigerated dough. Cover the pie with the dough and crimp the edges closed. Brush the top and edges of the crust with egg wash. Make a few slits in the center of the top crust, for the steam to escape, and put the pie pan on a baking sheet. Bake the torte until the crust is browned and crispy and the potatoes are cooked through, about 50 to 60 minutes. If the crust edges get too brown, cover them with some strips of aluminum foil. Remove the pie from the oven and let rest at least 15 minutes before cutting into wedges and serving.
• Put the butter, flour, and salt in the food processor, and pulse lightly just until the mixture resembles wet sand. Add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing briefly after each spoonful of water. Keep adding water until the dough just begins to gather into larger clumps. Transfer equal amounts of the dough into 2 resealable plastic bags and pat each into a disk. Let rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Remove 1 of the disks from the bag to a flour coated surface. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to a 10-inch round. Gently fit the rolled dough into a 9-inch pie pan, and refrigerate while you prepare the torte ingredients.

CHEESY CELERIAC, POTATO & BACON PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the celeriac and potatoes in a large pan, cover with salted water and bring to the boil. Turn down the heat and simmer until just tender, about 5 mins. Drain, then toss with the cream, rosemary and seasoning. Set aside.
• Roll one of the blocks of pastry until just bigger than a large dinner plate, cut into a neat circle and place onto a flat baking sheet. Leaving a 3cm border, spread out a layer of celeriac and potatoes, top with some cheese and bacon, then repeat the layers until all the ingredients are piled up.
• Roll out the second block of pastry large enough to completely cover the bottom sheet and filling with some overhang. Brush the bottom border with a little of the egg, then drape the pastry sheet over, pushing down to seal the edges. Trim off the excess with a sharp knife and crimp edge together with a fork. Can be made a day ahead and chilled before baking or frozen for up to 1 month. Defrost completely before baking.
• Pierce a steam hole in the top of the pie, brush all over with remaining egg and score the pastry lightly with spoke marks, if you like. Bake for 25 mins until golden brown. Stand for 5 mins before serving.

BACON POTATO CHEDDAR TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix the minced onions and garlic together.
• Get a skillet (all metal, no rubber or plastic handles) or pie dish.
• Coat the cooking area of the skillet with cooking spray.
• Cut the parchment paper into a circle that covers the cooking area of the skillet, and place it in side the skillet.
• Start lining the center of the skillet with a layer of bacon in a fan pattern, with one end of the bacon at the center and the other end hangs over the end of the skill. Each slice should overlap about a 3rd to half of the width of a bacon slice. Take care to stagger the bacon at the center so you don't end up with a very thick layer of bacon in the center of the pan.
• Slice your potatoes in about 1/4 inch thick slices.
• After the skillet is completely covered with bacon, start adding potato slices in layers inside the skillet on top of the bacon, creating a layer of potato on top of the bacon.
• After completely adding a layer of potato that covers the bottom of the skillet, sprinkle some pepper, onions/garlic mixture, and a generous portion of cheddar on top of each layer.
• Repeat the previous 2 steps until the potato & cheese layers are stacked about 1 inch above the top of the skillet.
• Fold all of the bacon stips on top of the stack of potato until the top layer is completely covered.
• Place a small, metal skillet or pot cover on top of the tart to hold the bacon in place during baking.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 2 hours and 30 minutes.
