800 g floury potatoes
7-10 Tbsp Salt
200 g streaky smoked bacon
2 Onions
2 Eggs (size M)
7-10 Tbsp Pepper
2 TABLESPOONS Breadcrumbs
2 TABLESPOONS Butter or margarine
1/2 Head frisée and oak leaf salad
200 g cherry tomatoes
8 Shallots
1 TEASPOON Dijon mustard
2 TABLESPOONS Balsamic vinegar
1 TEASPOON liquid honey
3 TABLESPOONS Olive oil

Directions

1
Peel, wash and chop the potatoes and boil them in salted water for about 20 minutes until soft. Dice the bacon and leave it out in the pan. Peel onions, cut into rings and add to the bacon in the pan.
2
Fry over a low heat until the onions are transparent. Drain the potatoes, let them evaporate and mash them into puree. Whisk the eggs. Stir the bacon-onion mixture and whisked eggs into the mashed potatoes.
3
Season the puree with salt and pepper, mix well and fill in a casserole dish. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over it and spread fat in flakes on top. Bake in the preheated oven (electric range: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) on the middle shelf for approx. 20 minutes.
4
In the meantime clean and wash the salad and pluck it into bite-sized pieces. Wash the cherry tomatoes, grate them dry and cut them in half. Peel and halve shallots and cut them into fine slices. Whisk mustard, vinegar and honey with a pinch of salt and some pepper.
5
At the end, slowly whisk the oil with a whisk. Place the oven on top heat (250 °C) and brown the casserole for another 5-10 minutes (or 5 minutes under the grill). Remove.
6
Mix lettuce leaves, tomatoes and shallots with the dressing. Arrange the mashed potatoes casserole with the salad on plates.
