The best tartiflette

This blog came about because I can never re-find the recipes I have used online. I can't find this one again either so I am writing it down while I can remember it.
Truly the Best tartiflette

Serves 4

1 tblspn chilli (or plain) oil
1kg waxy potatoes cut into 1cm cubes
200g smoked lardons
1 large onion diced
1 tspn cumin seeds
Black pepper
Small glass dry white wine
Clove garlic
1 tblspn creme fraiche or cream
1 whole reblochon cheese cut in half across the width

Method
Pre heat oven to 180*C

In a large deep pan heat oil and toss potato cubes to coat. Add lardons, onions and cumin seeds, cook slowly until potatoes are tender and browning but not breaking up. (about 30 mins)

Add glass of wine turn up heat and reduce until almost gone.

Add cream and season to taste.

Rub buttered cooking dish with cut garlic clove and transfer from pan to dish.
Top with half cheese, cut side down. Cut remaining cheese into pieces small enough to fill in round the side.

Go on a diet tomorrow.
