DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a shallow 9 inch baking dish or pie pan.
To make crust: Use a cheese cloth to squeeze extra liquid from the grated potatoes. In a medium size mixing bowl, combine potato, onion, egg, salt and flour. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pie pan, and pat it down with a rubber spatula or your fingertips. Bake for 30 minutes. Brush the crust with oil, and bake for another 10 minutes. Remove crust from oven, and reduce the oven's temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
To make the filling: In a large frying pan over a high heat, heat the oil until hot. Reduce the temperature to medium and saute onion, garlic, thyme, salt, pepper and paprika in the hot oil; cook for 8 to 10 minutes. Stir the cauliflower into the pan and cook for 15 minutes.
Spread 1/2 of the cheese onto the potato crust. Spoon the vegetables on top of the cheese. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the sauteed vegetables. Beat the milk and eggs together in a small bowl, and then pour over the vegetables and cheese. Sprinkle paprika over the mixture.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top of the pie is slightly browned.

I admit I used a frozen pie crust for this instead of making the potato crust (lazy lazy lazy!), but it came out wonderfully. The cauliflower filling was so tasty, you could just do that step of this recipe as a delicious vegetable side dish. Yum!

With some modification, this could be a great recipe! The crust was delicious but next time I will use more potato so it is thicker. I will also use dried mixed herbs, as I found the thyme a little too powerful. The custard topping was delicious! Next time I will use a combination of cauliflower and broccolli (although I think any vegetable would work well).

This was excellent. I used frozen hash browns and will try using frozen cauliflower next time just to make it more convenient.

My boyfriend and I loved this recipe, and it turned out fine in a deep 8-inch baking dish. More of a casserole than a pie, really. Also, we cut down the onion in both the crust and the filling by about half and it was still very flavorful.

I enjoyed it very much, my family liked it and I cut off some of the fat by using low fat cheese and skimmed milk. It takes sometime getting it ready but it is good!

This dish had excellent flavor and was well worth the time and effort. It was more quiche-like than I expected but still delicious. Next time I may add some broccoli or mushrooms and cut back on the cheese.

Yumm! This is one of the few meatless recipes that I crave...I must admit that I don't make it often though as it is laborsome. It's not particularly difficult but has a lot of different steps to it with the potato crust, sauteing the cauliflower, etc., but in the end it is very delicious. I especially like the combination of thyme with the cauliflower and the cheese and potato. I still haven't figured out a way to get the crust perfect yet, gets kind of tough on the bottom. Still a very good recipe that I'd recommend trying.

This recipe is excellent (and well worth the baking time!). I found no problems with the recipe whatsoever and it was so good it disappeared faster than anything I've made in months...even my non-vegetarian boyfriend loved it. This is definitely a keeper. As a side note, we didn't have quite enough potato for the crust, but substituted a little grated carrot and it was fine.

This was really pretty good. I added some chopped spinach to it because I had some that needed to be used up. Followed the directions exactly...tasted good. Even the kids liked it.
