"Potato Bake or Party Potatoes Preheat oven to 350 degrees F., rack in the middle position This is another recipe from Vera Olsen ("Hot Stuff") who's engaged to marry Andrew Westcott ("Silver Fox.") 1/3 cup flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon pepper 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon paprika 4 eggs 1 large grated onion 1/2 cup melted butter (1 stick, 1/4 pound) 5 cups frozen hash browns or frozen Potatoes O'Brien 2 cups grated cheese (any kind will do) Spray a 9-inch by 13-inch cake pan with Pam or other non-stick spray. Mix flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and seasonings in a large bowl with a fork. Add the eggs and whisk it all up. Stir in the onion, melted butter, grated cheese and potatoes. Dump the mixture into the cake pan, cover it with foil, and bake at 350 degrees F. for one hour. Remove foil, turn the oven up to 400 degrees F., and bake for an additional 15 to 30 minutes, or until the top is crusty and golden brown. If you want to make this into what Vera Olsen calls "Party Potatoes," take the potatoes out of the oven, let them cool for about ten minutes so that the eggs and cheese hold them together, cut them into serving-size squares, (you can get about 12 from a pan,) transfer the squares to a platter, and top each one with a generous dollop of sour cream and a sprinkling of caviar (or crumbled bacon for those who don't like caviar.)"
