4 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced 
8 ounces grated mozzarella cheese 
1/2 small onion, finely chopped 
2 beaten eggs 
1 13 oz. can evaporated milk 
1 teaspoon caraway seed 
1 teaspoon salt 
pepper to taste 
3 - 4 TBSP. butter


cook potatoes in a small amount of water for about 10 minutes. do not drain. in a 2 quart buttered casserole, alternate layers of potatoes (use a slotted spoon to remove them from the cooking water) with layers of 1/2 the cheese and all of the onion, salt and pepper. end with the second half of cheese on top.

i hope you enjoy it. please let me know if you try it and how you liked it. i think next time i will not precook the potatoes at all and just add 1/2 cup water and let it bake 10-15 minutes longer instead. they are sliced thin and i don't think they needed that step. we had another busy day. it has been a good week. we are all happy. 

sweet dreams, everyone. thanks for stopping by. until tomorrow. happiness to you. from me. with heart. ox joon
