Instructions

Assembly and Baking

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a pie dish with half of the rich pastry.
  2. Layer the 4 large potatoes and 1 small onion alternately in the pastry-lined dish, seasoning each layer with garlic salt, salt, and black pepper to taste.
  3. After layering, pour 1 small can evaporated milk evenly over all the potato and onion layers.
  4. Roll out the remaining rich pastry and place it over the top of the pie. Seal and crimp the edges, then brush the top crust with a little milk.
  5. Bake at 350°F for approximately 50 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

💡 Make-Ahead & Storage: Can be assembled a few hours in advance and kept refrigerated before baking. Leftovers reheat well in a 350°F oven to restore crust crispness.
