Preparation
- Cook the potatoes in boiling water with the salt for about 10 minutes, drain and set aside. Note: The potatoes are thin so they may cook faster. Don’t over cook or they will fall apart.
- Cook the onions and garlic in a medium heaving skillet with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil for about 5 minutes until translucent.
- Drain the roasted peppers from the jar and slice them into your desired size. Add them to the onions and garlic to heat them through.
- Grease a medium oven safe deep dish with the remaining olive oil. Begin layering first with half of the potatoes, then top evenly with 1/2 of the onions and 1/2 of cheese.
- Add salt and pepper between layers if desired. Finish the remaining layer and top with the rest of cheese.
- Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
