Tracking household grocery expenses - what do you spend?

Is this like a Welsh onion cake?

I use cheddar in my Italianesque pasta dishes all the time! Any flavorful melty cheese is fine.

Usually casseroles in North America are soupier than an a Welsh Onion Cake. Served with a big serving spoon. They tend to be a one pan dish, and often are big enough to feed a big family.

The ingredients could be the same as

Welsh Onion Cake, probably with very different ratios.

Edit: one difference aesthetically, is that Welsh Onion Cakes are pretty. Casseroles stick to your ribs and fill you up, but they are rarely pretty!

Potato, carrot and ham casseroles are mostly a North American thing. Here is a recipe made by a Keralan home cook (North American recipe)

It’s kind of a made up recipe from youtube recipe. I peel and shred potatoes and carrots, slice some onions and its bound together with an egg mixture, topped with cheese.

Do you use cheddar?

No cheese at all. Potatoes, cubed ham, milk and butter. Tiny bit of flour.

Thanks… I printed this, as well.

I don’t have leeks, but can substitute onions in for leeks. And yes, I’ve substituted brats for sausages.
