Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 pounds potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
  • 1 cup French onion dip
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (Swiss or Gruyère)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash, peel, and cut the potatoes into uniform 1-inch chunks.
  3. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl, drizzle with a little oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat uniformly.
  4. Transfer the seasoned potatoes to a greased baking dish and spread the French onion dip evenly over the potatoes.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top, ensuring each potato piece is generously covered.
Baking
  1. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  2. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and the cheese has melted and is bubbling.
Serving
  1. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped green onions for freshness, and serve warm.

Notes

For a zesty twist, consider using a Halal-friendly onion soup mix. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze before baking for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for the best texture.
