Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. In a large pan, boil the potatoes for 5 mins, then drain and tip into a large mixing bowl.

  • step 2

    Melt the butter in a saucepan and gently fry the onion until soft. Add the bacon and cook for a further 5 mins. Mix the bacon and onion with the potatoes in the bowl.

  • step 3

    Stir in the wine, cream, most of the cheese and a little paprika. Season and mix together, then spread over a large (30cm long x 4cm deep) buttered baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese, cover with foil and cook for 25 mins. Remove the foil, sprinkle a little more paprika over the top and cook for a further 20 mins until the cheese is golden brown.

RECIPE TIPS
WITH A DIFFERENT CHEESE

Raclette is a traditional semi-soft Swiss cheese which is great for melting. It’s available in most large supermarkets, but if you can’t get hold of it, you could make this with gruyére, reblochon or taleggio instead.

Excellent, I use Gruyere Cheese, not too keen on recipe cheese. This is a firm favourite that I make regularly

Really great! If you live in Australia and can't find the Raclette, Coles sells it in their loose cheese section in the deli.

Except the Swiss would have some macaroni in there too and serve it with some apple puree/compote on the side. Sounds gross, but don't knock it till you've tried it, it's an unusually good combination! And even better with some crispy/fried onions on top before serving. MMmmm... "Ãlplermagrone",…

This is indeed a lovely bake rich and hearty and very delicious. I tried reblochon cheese (yuk) tallegio (quite nice) gruyere (nicest). As others have said I too was unable to source raclette cheese, luckily we all love it with gruyere. We have it with salad or plain green steamed veg.
