Equipment

  • 1 medium-large baking/casserole dish (about 3 litre capacity)

Ingredients

  • 750 grams potatoes (about 4 medium potatoes)
  • 210 grams tinned salmon
  • 1 medium onion
  • 2 cups grated cheddar/tasty cheese (150 grams)
  • ½ cup thickened cream (heavy cream) (125 ml)
  • ½ cup milk (125 ml)
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon bread crumbs
  • ⅛ teaspoon dill (optional)
  • salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees celsius (390 degrees fahrenheit).
  • Grease baking dish or spray with oil.
  • Peel potatoes and onion and slice thinly.
  • Drain salmon and remove large bones and skin. Mash with a fork.
  • Whisk together cream, milk, lemon juice, mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
  • Arrange about ⅓ of the potato slices on the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Arrange about ⅓ of the onion on top of the potatoes as the next layer.
  • Arrange about ⅓ of the salmon on top of the onion as the next layer.
  • Sprinkle about ⅓ of the cheese as the next layer.
  • Pour ⅓ of the wet mixture over the layers and add a little dill and salt and pepper.
  • Repeat these steps two more times, but adding the cheese and onion as the final top layer (that is, add wet mixture before these ingredients for the last layer).
  • Cover with a lid or foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Reduce temperature to 180 degrees celsius (360 degrees fahrenheit). Uncover and bake for another 45 minutes.

Notes

How long will it keep? It will last about 2-3 days in the fridge, so it's perfect for making up in advance the day before you're planning to serve it.
Can I freeze Salmon Potato Bake? I prefer not to.
What is the best way to re-heat this dish? It can be re-heated in the microwave (on low-medium power) or covered in the oven at 160 degrees celsius for half an hour.
