Irish Pan Haggerty is a delicious twist on a classic Northumberland potato dish using Dubliner cheese. It’s easy to make and will definitely wow those at your St. Patrick’s Day gathering.
Ingredients for Irish Pan Haggerty:
I used the following ingredients for this incredible dish: Unsalted butter, Russet potatoes, onions, Dubliner cheese, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
Making the Irish Pan Haggerty:
I started by thinly slicing the potatoes and onions with my food processor using the 3 mm blade. Then, I cooked the onions in some melted butter in a skillet set over medium heat until they were softened but not browned. This took about 15 minutes.
When the onions were done, I melted the rest of the butter in a 10-inch oven proof skillet over medium heat. Then, I removed the pan from the heat. I arranged 1/3 of the potatoes in a layer, allowing the slices to overlap. Then, I topped the potatoes with half of the onions, and half of the cheese. I sprinkled some salt and pepper on the first layer. Then, I repeated the layering with half of remaining potatoes, the rest of the onions, and the rest of the cheese. Before topping the Irish Pan Haggerty with the remaining potatoes, I sprinkled on some more salt and pepper.
Finishing the Irish Pan Haggerty:
I heated the potatoes over medium heat for about 15 minutes until the bottom started to brown. Then I placed a piece of parchment paper on top along with a plate, and pressed down to compact the layers. I popped the Irish Pan Haggerty into a preheated 400° F oven for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, I removed the pan from the oven and repeated the compacting with parchment paper and a plate. I returned the Irish Pan Haggerty to oven for 15 more minutes.
When I removed the Irish Pan Haggerty from the oven, it was perfectly cooked. I used a silicon spatula carefully release it from the sides and bottom of the pan.
I quickly flipped the Irish Pan Haggerty onto a cutting board, and cut it into wedges to serve. All I can say is that the Irish Pan Haggerty was incredible. It had the perfect mix of potatoes, onions, and cheese. Yum!
