Kale and Potato Gratin image

From the local paper. Warm comfort food. I used red potatoes and they turned out well. I adjusted the recipe a little.

Categories     Potato

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb kale
1 1/4 lbs potatoes
2 small onions
2 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces
1 teaspoon minced tarragon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Butter a 2-quart shallow baking dish.
  • Wash, derib and coarsely chop the kale.
  • Place in a pot with a little bit of water and steam until almost tender, 5 minutes or so. Check to make sure it's not burning.
  • Peel and cut potatoes and onions into 1/8-inch thick rounds.
  • If desired, saute onions until lightly browned. It gives more flavor, I think.
  • Drain kale and let stand until cool enough to handle. Press out excess water.
  • Build up alternating layers of potatoes, onions and kale (two layers each) in baking dish, beginning and ending with potatoes and dotting each onion layer with butter, minced tarragon, salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  • Pour half-and-half over top, cover and bake in oven until potatoes are tender and almost all liquid is absorbed, 30-45 minutes.
  • Place under broiler, if desired, to brown the top.

I'm allergic to kale. Is there a substitute I can use?

I tried this recipe and it was just okay. The flavors were a bit bland and the potatoes were not very creamy. I wouldn't make this again.

This kale and potato gratin was a disappointment. The potatoes were undercooked and the kale was tough. I would not recommend this recipe.

This kale and potato gratin was a delightful dish! The combination of flavors and textures was perfect. The kale added a nice bitterness that balanced out the richness of the potatoes and cheese. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone loo
