Provided by Chef John

Categories     Side Dish     Potato Side Dish Recipes     Potatoes Au Gratin Recipes

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon butter
3 pounds whole russet potatoes
12 ounces thick cut bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
½ cup dry white wine
¾ cup creme fraiche
1 (16 ounce) round Reblochon cheese or other ripe, washed rind cheese

Steps:

  • Boil unpeeled potatoes with salt in water over high heat; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are easily pierced with a knife but are not too soft, 15 to 25 minutes depending on size. Remove potatoes from water to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Cook bacon in a skillet over medium to medium-high heat until cooked but not quite crisp and most of the fat is rendered out, 5 to 7 minutes. Push bacon to one side of the pan and blot up some of the fat with a wadded paper towel. Add onion slices. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper and cayenne. Cook and stir over medium heat until onions are soft, sweet, and golden, about 6 minutes. Add white wine; cook for 2 minutes and deglaze pan. Remove from heat.
  • Cut wheel of cheese into 2 semi-circles. Place each half cut side down and split in half to form 2 more semi-circles, each with a rind side and creamy cheese side.
  • When potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel off the skin. Slice into fairly thick slices, about 1/3 inch thick.
  • Place a little over half the potato slices onto bottom of a 2-quart shallow baking dish. A little overlapping is fine. Sprinkle with a bit of salt. Pour in bacon/onion/wine mixture and spread over potatoes in an even layer. Arrange the remaining potato slices over the top, overlapping as needed. Spread creme fraiche over the potatoes. Place down cheese pieces, rind side up. Transfer pan to a baking sheet. Bake in center rack of preheated oven until browned and potatoes are tender, 45 to 50 minutes.

Categories     Cheese

Time P1DT6h50m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1 1/2 teaspoons caraway seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
3/4-1 1/2 teaspoon ground dried hot chili peppers (your choice)
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1/2-1 teaspoon cayenne (or lessto taste)
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
4 large artichokes (you may substitute 2 cans artichoke hearts,saving the juice)
2 large potatoes
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups chopped onions
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons finely diced fresh serrano chili peppers (or whatever chile pepper you like)
1/4 cup tamari soy sauce
2 cups heavy cream
4 ounces grated mozzarella cheese
8 ounces grated cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Place a large pot half filled with water over high heat.
  • Add the artichokes and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer just until the artichokes are tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove the artichokes from the pot, reserving the cooking water, and allow them to cool.
  • The best way to do this is to turn them upside down on your drainboard-all the excess water will drain out and they'll cool quickly.
  • Boil the potatoes in the water in which the artichokes were cooked just until they're tender, about 35 to 40 minutes, reserving 1 cup of the water (or if most of the cooking water has evaporated, add enough water to measure 1 cup).
  • Peel the potatoes and dice enough into 1/2 inch cubes to measure 1 cup firmly packed: slice the remainder into 1/2 inch thick rounds.
  • Set aside.
  • You may be tempted to eat all the artichokes yourself right now, but resist!
  • Inside every leaf there's a small amount of pulp-the good part.
  • To get it out, with your thumb on the back of a teaspoon, scrape the pulp off the inside of the leaf, always scraping away from yourself.
  • Reserve the pulp and discard the leaves.
  • Scrape out and discard the choke, the fuzzy section underneath all the little leaves, and be sure to get it all.
  • Peel the stems and dice the hearts and stems into bite-sized pieces.
  • Arrange the artichoke stems, hearts, and pulp and the potato slices in a 9x13 inch casserole, alternating layers of potato and artichoke.
  • Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350*F.
  • Melt the butter in a 3-quart pot over high heat.
  • When the butter sizzles, add the onions, ginger, serrano peppers, and seasoning mix.
  • Stir and cook, and when the onions begin to brown, about 6 minutes, add the diced potatoes.
  • Reduce the heat to medium if necessary to prevent burning.
  • Cook, stirring and mashing the potatoes constantly, until the mixture becomes thick, fairly dry, and brown, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the reserved cooking water and cook, continuing to stir, for 6 minutes.
  • Add the tamari and cook for 5 minutes, stirring vigorously and mashing the potatoes until they disintegrate.
  • The mixture should be a rich brown color.
  • Stir in the heavy cream, bring to a boil, then add the mozzarella cheese.
  • Stir and remove from the heat.
  • Pour this sauce over the artichokes and potatoes in the casserole and top with the Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake until the cheese is a beautiful golden brown, about 25 minutes.
  • Serve hot.

Cheese and Potato Casserole image

EVEN THOUGH my family is grown and gone, I still like to make mashed potatoes. I came up with this variation a long time ago, thinking that it would be a change of pace. It became number one on my family's request list. It's also simple to make in larger quantities if needed. -Margaret Draughon, Clinton, North Carolina

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 lbs baking potatoes, of uniform size
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
salt
1 cup Fontina cheese, shredded
2/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 cup light meat stock

Steps:

  • Have ready a large bowl of water. Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin rounds. As soon as they are skiced, place them in the water. When they have all bveen sliced, drain well and lay out on a kitchen towel to dry.
  • Preheat an oven to 300°F Grease a baking dish about 9 1/2 inches in diameter with the butter. In the prepared dish, layer some of the potato slices in a circle, with the slices slightly overlapping, to form a flower,.
  • Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and a small handful of each of the cheeses. Repeat the layering until yo have used up all the potatoes, finishing with the cheeses. Pour the meat stock over the surface.
  • Bake until potatoes are tender when pierced with a toothpick and the top is slightly golden, about 1 1/2 hours. Be careful that they do not become too brown on top, covering the dish with aluminum foil if necessary. Serve hot, directly from the dish.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese for the best flavor.
  • Grate the cheese yourself instead of using pre-shredded cheese. Freshly grated cheese melts better and gives a smoother texture.
  • Use Yukon Gold or red potatoes for a creamy texture.
  • Peel the potatoes before cooking, as the skin can be tough and chewy.
  • Slice the potatoes thinly so that they cook evenly.
  • Add some chopped onion or garlic to the potatoes for extra flavor.
  • Season the potatoes with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Bake the casserole until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving so that it sets up properly.
