Ingredients
Potatoes
- 3 Potatoes boiled
Corn Topping
- 1 Onion finely chopped
- 1 cup Corn Kernels boiled
- 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup Coriander chopped, for garnish
Seasonings
- 1 1/2 tsp Salt or to taste
- 1/4 tsp Chili Flakes or to taste
- 1/2 tsp Oregano dried, or to taste
- 2 Tbsp Lime Juice freshly squeezed
- 2 Tbsp Butter salted
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes until tender. This ensures they'll roast beautifully.
- Peel and cut the potatoes into thick round slices.
- In a wok or large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. This softens the onion and develops its sweetness.
- Add the boiled corn kernels, salt, oregano, and chili flakes to the pan. Stir well to combine.
- Just before removing from heat, stir in the lime juice. The lime juice adds a bright, citrusy note.
- Lightly brush a flat pan or baking sheet with oil. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer.
- Roast the potatoes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Season the roasted potato slices with a sprinkle of salt.
- Top each potato slice with a spoonful of the corn mixture and a generous sprinkle of mozzarella cheese.
- If the potatoes are still hot from roasting, the cheese will melt quickly. If not, briefly microwave or broil until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- For extra crispiness, parboil the potatoes, let them cool, and then toss them with a tablespoon of cornstarch before baking or pan-frying.
- Add a layer of pickled jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce before topping with cheese for extra heat.
- For a smoky flavor, use smoked cheddar or gouda, or sprinkle smoked paprika over the top.
- Reheat leftovers in a skillet over medium heat, covered, to remelt the cheese.
Expert Tips
- Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the potatoes; work in batches for even cooking and optimal crispiness.
- Use a mix of cheeses for a more complex flavor profile. Consider adding sharp cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack along with the mozzarella.
- For a creamier dish, stir in a dollop of sour cream or crème fraîche before serving.
Storage Instructions
- Store leftover cheesy potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
