Categories     Potato

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

8 ounces onions
1 1/2 ounces butter
1 1/2 ounces pork fat (or more butter)

  • Peel and slice the onions medium-fine (again the madolin, if you have one).
  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Melt the butter and pork fat, (you can replace the pork fat with butter, but the taste will be different), in a large iron frying pan over a medium low heat and add the onions, cooking them for 4 to 5 minutes until transparent before adding the potatoes.
  • Season well with salt and pepper.
  • Turn them over occasionally with a wooden spatula and when they have coloured to the blond stage, mix in the parsley.
  • Empty the contents of the pan into a large oval gratin dish and cook very slowly in the oven for at least 1 hour or until browned and crusted on the surface and melting underneath.

GOAT CHEESE OMELET WITH MIXED HERBS, LYONNAISE POTATOES, GLAZED HAM AND TEXAS TOAST



Goat Cheese Omelet with Mixed Herbs, Lyonnaise Potatoes, Glazed Ham and Texas Toast image

Provided by Carla Hall

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 1 omelet

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 large eggs
1 tablespoon heavy cream
1 tablespoon minced mixed fresh herbs, such as chives, thyme leaves, flat-leaf parsley leaves and tarragon leaves
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Pinch kosher salt
2 tablespoons crumbled goat cheese or feta or shredded Cheddar or Gruyère
Lyonnaise Potatoes, recipe follows
Ham and Toast, recipe follows
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium red potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), cut into 1/2-inch slices
1 medium onion, halved and thinly sliced
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 to 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Vegetable oil, for cooking
1 ham steak, halved lengthwise
2 slices Texas toast
Unsalted butter, for the toast

Steps:

  • In a 4-cup liquid measuring cup or large bowl with a spout, gently whisk the eggs with the heavy cream until blended. Whisk in the herbs.
  • Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter to the pan and swirl to coat the bottom and sides. Stir the egg mixture again, then pour into the pan. Immediately start stirring with a rubber spatula and scraping around the edges of the pan without stopping. Add the salt. As soon as the eggs are just scrambled but still quite wet, spread the eggs in an even layer on the bottom of the pan. Add the cheese in a line down the eggs, perpendicular to the pan handle. Tilt the pan at a 45-degree angle to your serving plate and start nudging the edge of the egg closest to you to roll the top third of the egg over the filling in the center. Keep nudging to roll again into a three-fold omelet. The final roll should flip the omelet out of the pan and onto your plate.
  • Mix the paprika, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and a pinch of salt; cook, tossing about every 5 minutes, until evenly golden brown, about 15 minutes total. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the paprika mixture and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Combine the maple syrup and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. Preheat a flat top grill or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and brush with oil. Sear the ham until golden, flipping halfway through, 2 minutes per side. Glaze the ham with the maple syrup mixture with a heatproof brush and cook 1 minute longer.
  • Add the toast to the flat top and toast 1 to 2 minutes per side. Spread with butter and cut in half diagonally.

PAN-FRIED POTATO CAKE WITH ONIONS AND BACON: POTATOES LYONNAISE



Pan-Fried Potato Cake with Onions and Bacon: Potatoes Lyonnaise image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 tablespoons clarified unsalted butter
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
4 strips smoked bacon, cooked until crisp and then crumbled or diced
2 1/2 pounds red-skinned potatoes, peeled
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, put 1 tablespoon of clarified butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and saute until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in the crumbled bacon. Set aside.
  • With the julienne blade of a mandoline or the large holes of a shredder/grater, shred the potatoes. By handfuls, squeeze any excess liquid from the shreds and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Add the remaining butter and the salt and pepper and mix well.
  • Heat a 10-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil. Squeezing away any liquid that has accumulated in the bowl, arrange half of the potatoes in an even layer. Spread the sauteed onion over the potatoes, and then top with the remaining potatoes in an even layer. Saute over medium heat until the underside of the potatoes are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • To flip the cake, slide it out of the skillet browned side down onto a large plate, then invert the skillet over the plate and flip both together to return the cake to the skillet browned side up.
  • Put the skillet in the oven and bake until the cake is cooked through, about 10 minutes more. The potatoes should feel tender when the cake is pierced with a skewer or a sharp knife tip. With a spatula, lift 1 side of the cake slightly to check if the underside is well browned. If not, put the skillet on top of the stove over medium-high heat and cook briefly to brown the underside.
  • Slide the potato cake onto a serving platter. Garnish with parsley and, with a sharp knife, cut it into 6 wedges. Serve immediately.

2 pounds russet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
½ cup butter
salt to taste
ground white pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Peel potatoes and cut into 1/2 inch slices. Place sliced potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Allow to boil 2 minutes, then drain and set aside.

Tips:

  • Select the right potatoes: Use small, waxy potatoes such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss. These potatoes hold their shape well and won't easily break apart during cooking.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: Slicing the potatoes into even-sized pieces will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too thick, they won't cook through properly; if they're too thin, they'll overcook and become mushy.
  • Use a well-seasoned skillet: A well-seasoned skillet will help prevent the potatoes from sticking and will give them a nice, golden-brown crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: When cooking the potatoes, make sure not to overcrowd the skillet. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick.
  • Cook the potatoes over medium-low heat: Cooking the potatoes over medium-low heat will help them cook through without burning.
  • Be patient: Cooking Lyonnaise potatoes takes time. Don't rush the process or the potatoes won't have a chance to develop their full flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Lyonnaise potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. They're perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner. With a little planning and attention to detail, you can easily make this classic French dish at home.
