  1. I scaled this back for 3 serves and still have one serve left over (the DM has claimed it for breakfast as a potato cake). The only changes besides serving size was I used grated light mozzarella that I had left over from another recipe and I loved the crusty crumbs on the side and would like to duplicate it on the top, maybe with fine fresh breadcrumbs mixed with some extra cheese. The other was as I had some roasted garlic pulp left from a previous recipe I used that to mix in with to potatoes rather than boiling fresh cloves with the potatoes. Thank you Marie for a great recipe, made for Bargain Basement.
