Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes (peeled and chopped)
• 2 medium Sweet potatoes (peeled and chopped)
• 2 medium Purple potatoes (peeled and chopped)
• 6 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 8 tablespoons Butter (unsalted)
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 2 medium Carrots (finely diced)
• 1 cup Green peas (frozen or fresh)
• 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with a light layer of butter or olive oil.

Step 2

In three separate pots, boil each type of potato (russet, sweet, and purple) in salted water until soft and tender, 10-15 minutes each. Drain thoroughly.

Step 3

Mash each type of potato in separate bowls. Divide the cream cheese and butter equally among the three bowls (2 tablespoons of cream cheese and ~2.5 tablespoons of butter for each) and mix until smooth. Add a splash of milk to each bowl to achieve a creamy consistency. Add salt and pepper as per taste to each bowl.

Step 4

In a skillet over medium heat, sauté onions in olive oil until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in the diced carrots and cook for 4-5 minutes until softened. Add peas and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Season the vegetable mixture with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 6

Begin layering the pie: Spread the mashed russet potatoes evenly as the bottom layer in the pie dish. Add the sautéed vegetables as the second layer, spreading them evenly over the potatoes.

Step 7

Spread the mashed sweet potato evenly over the vegetable layer, followed by an even layer of the mashed purple potatoes.

Step 8

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top layer of potatoes.

Step 9

Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling, and the top is lightly golden.

Step 10

Remove the pie from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle chopped parsley for garnish before serving.

Step 11

Slice and enjoy your beautiful and delicious Colourful Potato Pie!
