Bacon, Potato and Cheese Tart

Ingredients

• 18 slices bacon 
• 1.5 pounds baking potatoes peeled sliced
• 1 tablespoon butter 
• 1.3 cups fontina shredded
• 8 servings salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

• oven
• baking pan

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Coat an 8 inch round baking dish with the butter. Arrange bacon in a spiral fashion in the baking dish, draping ends of the slices over the pan edge to fold over filling.
3. Arrange 1/3 of the potatoes over bacon, and sprinkle with 1/3 Fontina cheese. Repeat layers with remaining potatoes and cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Fold bacon over filling to form the upper layer.
4. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven 1 hour, or until potatoes are tender.
5. Drain any drippings, and cut into wedges to serve.
