A delightful and hearty dish combining creamy potatoes, savory bacon, and rich cheese, perfect for any meal.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for your dish.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the flour, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Stir constantly to avoid lumps and ensure a smooth sauce.
Gradually whisk in the milk, cooking and stirring until the mixture thickens and bubbles.
Cook until the sauce coats the back of a spoon for the perfect consistency.
Grease a 9-inch pie plate and spread half of the mashed potatoes evenly on the bottom and sides.
Use a spatula to smooth out the potatoes for an even layer.
Layer the hard-boiled eggs, crispy bacon, parsley, shredded cheddar cheese, and white sauce into the potato crust.
Distribute the ingredients evenly for consistent flavor in every bite.
Cover with the remaining mashed potatoes, smoothing the top. Brush with 2 tablespoons of milk.
Brushing with milk helps achieve a golden, crispy top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Keep an eye on the pie during the last few minutes to prevent over-browning.
Let the dish cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious Cheesy Potato and Egg Bake!
Allowing the dish to cool helps the layers set for easier serving.
