Potato and Red Pepper Bake Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with oil.
- Prepare the potatoes by peeling and grating them coarsely. Soak in water, then drain and squeeze out excess moisture.
- In a heated pan, sauté the diced onion with olive oil for 3–4 minutes. Add the chopped red bell pepper and cook for 5–7 minutes until softened. Remove from heat.
- In a bowl, combine the shredded potatoes with eggs, salt, marjoram, nutmeg, and crushed red pepper. Mix well.
- Layer the potato mixture into the baking dish, spreading evenly. Add the onion and pepper mixture on top.
- If using cheese, sprinkle it evenly over the dish.
- Bake for 50 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
