Potato, Spinach, and Feta Gratin image

Categories     Milk/Cream     Egg     Potato     Side     Bake     Vegetarian     Casserole/Gratin     Feta     Spinach     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds russet (baking) potatoes (about 3 large)
2 pounds fresh spinach, washed well and the coarse stems discarded
1/2 pound Feta cheese
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
3 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Oil an 8-inch-square (2-quart) baking dish lightly, line it with wax paper, and oil the paper lightly. Peel the potatoes and food processor fitted with a 2-mm. slicing disk slice the potatoes crosswise. (Alternatively, the potatoes may be sliced thin with a hand-held slicing device.) In a kettle of salted boiling water boil the potatoes for 7 minutes, or until they are just tender, drain them in a colander, and rinse them briefly under cold water. In the kettle cook the spinach in the water clinging to the leaves, covered, over high heat, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes, or until it is wilted, drain it, and refresh it under cold water. Squeeze the water from the spinach by wringing it by handfuls in a kitchen towel, transfer it to the food processor fitted with the metal blade, and add the Feta. In a bowl whisk together well the half-and-half, the eggs, the salt, and the pepper, add half the custard to the spinach mixture, and pulse the motor of the processor until the mixture is coarse.
  • Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish and spread them in an evenly layer. Pour the remaining custard over the potatoes, shaking the dish slightly to distribute the custard evenly, and top the potatoes with the spinach mixture, smoothing the top. bake the gratin in the middle of the oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until it is set in the middle, and let cool on a rack for 30 minutes. Run a knife around the side of the dish, invert the gratin onto a flameproof plate, and peel off the wax paper. Broil the gratin under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat for 10 to 15 minutes, or until top is golden brown, and serve it cut into squares.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of potatoes: Yukon Gold, russet, and red potatoes all work well in this casserole. Using a mix of potatoes will give you a variety of textures and flavors.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender but not mushy: You want the potatoes to be cooked through but still have a little bit of bite to them. Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and watery.
  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor than frozen spinach. If you are using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it and squeeze out all of the excess water before using it.
  • Use a good quality feta cheese: Feta cheese is a key ingredient in this casserole, so it is important to use a good quality cheese. Look for a cheese that is creamy and flavorful.
  • Season the casserole well: This casserole should be well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, cumin, or oregano, to your taste.
