For an extra layer of flavor, try sautéing the onions in a little butter until softened and translucent before layering them in the dish. This will add a touch of sweetness. If you're not a fan of anchovies, smoked salmon is a good substitute, although it will change the overall flavor profile. Consider adding a pinch of salt to compensate for the reduced saltiness. Make sure to cut the potatoes and onions into uniformly sized pieces to ensure even cooking. To prevent the top from browning too quickly, you can cover the dish with foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
