Ingredients
- 900 g bag of frozen crispy potatoes
- 500 ml of sour cream
- 1 400 g can of cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried onion powder

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200c (320F).
- In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, chicken soup, 6 tablespoons of melted butter, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder. Make sure to mix well.
- Next, add the potatoes and grated cheese and stir to combine.
- Then add the potato and cheese mixture in an ovenproof dish.
- In the meantime, put the cornflakes into a freezer bag and, using a rolling pin smash the cornflakes into fine pieces - similar to breadcrumbs.
- Add remaining 4 tablespoons of melted butter to the crushed cornflakes and combine well. Then evenly sprinkle the cornflakes over potatoes.
- Bake in the oven uncovered for 40-50 minutes, until golden brown on top.
Notes
If you don't have frozen potatoes, you can use fresh potatoes and dice them into cubes. I would recommend parboiling them for around 5 minutes or so and letting them cool before adding them to the sour cream/cheese mixture. Don't worry if they're not fully cooked as they will be going back into the oven again.
