Best 5 Potato And Parmesan Cake Recipes

POTATO AND PARMESAN CAKE

Steps:

• Slice the potatoes into very thin rounds.
• You should almost be able to see through them.
• Melt the butter in a small pan, then pour a little of it over the base of a shallow baking dish.
• Cover the butter with some of the potato slices, overlapping them slightly.
• Pour on a little more butter, then season with salt, black pepper, garlic and a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.
• Cover that with another layer of potatoes and seasonings, layering until you have used all the potatoes.
• Finish with the remaining butter and another dusting of Parmesan.
• Bake in a preheated oven at 220 C or 425 F for 45-50 minutes.
• From time to time, press the cake down firmly with a large spatula.
• By the end of the cooking time, the cake should be golden and sizzling around its edges.
• Remove from the oven and leave it to settle slightly for a few minutes before serving.

PARMESAN POTATO PANCAKE

Steps:

• Warm the 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch diameter) nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until tender and fragrant, about another 2 minutes. Season the onion mixture with salt and pepper. Transfer the onion mixture to a large bowl and set aside. Reserve the pan.
• Meanwhile, grate the potatoes in a food processor using the grating attachment blade. Use a kitchen towel to help squeeze out the water from the grated potatoes. Add the potatoes to the bowl with the onion mixture. Add the Parmesan and the basil. Stir to combine and season with additional salt and pepper, to taste.
• Warm the remaining olive oil over high heat in the same pan that was used to cook the onions. When the pan is hot, but not smoking add the potato mixture. Use a spatula to press the mixture down into the pan firmly and evenly. Turn the heat down to medium and cook the potato mixture until the bottom is golden brown and the pancake can move in the pan, about 12 to 15 minutes. Turn the heat down to medium-low if the pancake is browning too fast in places. Place a large plate on top of the pancake and flip the pancake out of the pan. Turn the heat on the pan back up to high. When the pan is hot slide the pancake back into the pan and cook until the bottom is golden and is cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes. Slide the pancake onto a serving platter, slice, and serve.

PARMESAN-CRUSTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and place on the center rack of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (see Cook's Note).
• For the Parmesan potatoes: Toss the potatoes, thyme sprigs, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl until combined. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Lay the potatoes cut-side-down in an even layer. Bake until tender and golden brown, about 35 minutes.
• For the smoked paprika aioli: Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon, paprika, garlic, a pinch of salt and a couple grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven and push the potatoes to one side of the pan (try to give yourself as much empty surface area as possible). Lightly spray the foil with more cooking spray, then sprinkle the Parmesan in an even layer over the empty space on the baking sheet, making sure to go all the way to the edges to create a roughly 14-by-12-inch rectangle. Place the potatoes on top of the Parmesan layer, cut-side down, so that all the potatoes are sitting on the cheese.
• Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake until all the Parmesan is golden brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes more. Cool slightly, about 5 minutes, then use a spatula to lift the crispy, cheesy potatoes off the pan (some potatoes will come off individually while others will come off in pairs). Serve with the smoked paprika aioli on the side.

OVEN ROASTED PARMESAN POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan or cast iron skillet with cooking spray; pour in about 1 teaspoon vegetable oil to coat the bottom.
• Mix Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper together in a bowl.
• Blot the cut-side of potatoes with a paper towel to remove any moisture. Place potatoes in a bowl and drizzle with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil; toss until potatoes are lightly coated. Sprinkle potatoes with Parmesan cheese mixture; toss to coat. Arrange potatoes, cut-side down, onto the prepared baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Turn potatoes to cut-side up; continue baking until golden and crispy, about 15 to 20 more minutes. Serve with sour cream.

SWEET-POTATO AND PARMESAN CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Shave potatoes lengthwise into long, wide ribbons with a vegetable peeler and toss strips with remaining ingredients. Lightly oil a 9-inch metal pie pan. Arrange strips in overlapping layers radiating from center, letting slices overhang slightly if necessary.
• Bake in lower third of oven until edges are browned, then cover edges with foil and bake until potatoes are tender and top of cake is crisp and brown, 45 to 50 minutes total.
