Servings 8 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups potatoes, diced, skin on or off is up to you
  • 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded, this is one 250 gram block
  • 2 spring onions, sliced, white and green parts
  • 3 cups evaporated milk
  • 2 cups eggs, beaten, start with 8 eggs
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • olive oil
  • 2-3 cups ham, diced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 190 C. Get out a large casserole dish, or two if all you have are small ones.
  • Heat a splash of olive oil in a large non stick or cast iron pan on medium heat, add potatoes and cook until lightly browned, then add the potatoes to the bottom of the casserole dish. Layer the ham, cheese, and spring onions over the potatoes.
  • In a large bowl, mix the eggs with the evaporated milk, salt and pepper. Pour this evenly into the casserole dish. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until the egg is set (use a butter knife inserted into the center, if it comes out clean, set, if there is runny egg on it, continue cooking). Serve.

Notes

Bacon and cheese would be most expensive here. Cheese figure 180 Baht/250 gram block, for the ham figure 100 Baht for 2 cups and 150 Baht for 3 cups. For 8 servings, this is about $1.22 per serving, not bad for a complete meal.
