If you're looking for a delicious, comforting meal that's simple to make, this Sweet Potato, Onion, and Cheddar Pie is for you. This hearty pie combines the natural sweetness of red onions and sweet potatoes with the savory taste of cheddar cheese, all wrapped up in a crispy puff pastry. It's perfect for family dinners or special occasions.
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).
- In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the sliced red onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.
- Tip: If the onions start to brown too quickly, reduce the heat slightly.
- While the onions cook, peel the sweet potatoes and slice them thinly, about 1/8-inch thick.
- In a bowl, toss the sweet potato slices with the chopped rosemary to evenly coat.
- Roll out one sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit a pie dish or baking tray. Ensure that there’s some overhang to form the edges.
- Place this sheet of puff pastry into the pie dish or onto the baking tray.
- Evenly spread the caramelized onions over the bottom of the puff pastry.
- Arrange the sweet potato slices on top of the onions in a circular pattern, overlapping slightly.
- Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the sweet potatoes.
- Roll out the second sheet of puff pastry to cover the pie.
- Place this sheet over the filling and tuck the edges into the dish or pinch to seal.
- Note: If you want a decorative edge, use a fork to press down the edges.
- Brush the top of the pie with the beaten egg. This will give the pastry a golden, glossy finish.
- Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
- Tip: If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with aluminum foil.
- Allow the pie to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips:
- For best results, use fresh red onions and sweet potatoes to enhance the flavors.
- You can add a pinch of salt and pepper to the filling for extra seasoning.
- If you prefer a stronger rosemary flavor, you can increase the amount slightly.
- Preheat the oven to the correct temperature before baking to ensure the puff pastry crisps up nicely.
- Using a fork to create small vents on the top of the pastry will help release steam and prevent a soggy crust.
With its savory and sweet flavor profile, this Sweet Potato, Onion, and Cheddar Pie is sure to become a favorite. It's a versatile recipe that's easy to adapt to your own tastes or dietary preferences. Enjoy it fresh out of the oven for the best experience.
