Traditional Swiss Onion & Potato Pie
- 1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
- 1 medium chopped onion
- 1 leek, thinly slice, white part only
- 2 apples, slightly tart, such as Granny Smith
- 2 medium potatoes
- 8 ounces shredded swiss cheese
- 2 prepared pastry shells
- salt
- pepper
- nutmeg, to taste
- Peel, halve and boil potatoes until mostly tender. Cool and slice.
- Peel and thinly slice apples.
- Melt butter in large skillet and saute onion, leek and apples about 15 minutes, until just tender. Do not overcook.
- Add potato slices, salt, pepper and nutmeg and toss, light, trying not to break up potatoes much.
- Place pie crust in glass pie plate, add half the mixture, sprinkle to cover with cheese and add other half mixture.
- Place other pie crust on top, crimping edges and piercing to vent.
- You can brush with egg wash if you wish.
- Bake in 350u0b0F oven for 35-40 minutes, covering crust edges with foil after 20 minutes.
- Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
- Hint: I go a bit heavy on the nutmeg.
