Ingredients:

(6 serves )

• 4 large potatoes

• Pepper to taste

• Salt to taste

• 5 grams of butter (about a teaspoon)

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• Gouda cheese (enough to cover the layers of potatoes)

• Garlic powder to taste

Instructions:

1. Preparation of the Potatoes:

   • First, wash the 4 large potatoes well and cut them into thin slices. Remember to be careful with the knife! You can also use a peeler and cut potato slices.

2. Seasoning of the Potatoes:

   • Place the potato slices in a large bowl. Add salt, pepper and a pinch of garlic powder. Then, add enough olive oil (approx. 1 - 1 1/2 Tbsp.) and mix everything well.

3. Cake Assembly:

   • Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).

   • Lightly grease a baking pan with a little butter (just a little since the potatoes already have oil in them)

   • Now, place the potato slices in the mold vertically, one after the other. Make sure they are arranged well, this will give your cake a spectacular look!

4. Filled in:

   • Between the layers of potatoes, place cubes of Gouda cheese and small cuts of butter. You can also try grated Gouda cheese. This will give a creamy and delicious touch to your cake. Distribute the butter evenly between the layers.

5. Baked:

   • Bake for about 1 hour, or until the potatoes are golden and crispy on top. The smell is going to be irresistible!

6. Serve:

   • Once ready, remove the cake from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before cutting into portions. Wait a bit so you don't burn yourself!

   • Serve hot and enjoy this creamy, crunchy delight. Your friends and family will be delighted!
