Time 1h15m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 large Idaho potatoes of equal size
8 ounces unsalted butter
3 ounces shiitake mushrooms (see note)
3 ounces oyster mushrooms (see note)
3 ounces white mushrooms
3 ounces chanterelles (optional)
1 large shallot
1/2 bunch parsley
Half a bunch, or 8 ounces, celery, diced
2 ounces leek, diced
1 ounce shallots, diced
1 ounce onions, diced
1 ounce butter
1 cup dry white wine
1 clove garlic
1 branch fresh thyme
Juice of 1/2 lemon
8 ounces butter
1 ounce diced tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
  • Peel and cut the potatoes into rectangular shapes, about 3 by 1 1/2 inches.
  • Using a mandoline, a vegetable slicer or a sharp kitchen knife, slice each potato rectangle into 5 slices.
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and brush the parchment with the melted butter. Spread out the potato slices on a cookie sheet. Butter another piece of parchment paper and place, buttered side down, on the potatoes. Cook in the oven until the potatoes are soft, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Chop all the mushrooms. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a saute pan and add the mushrooms. Cook over medium-low heat until they are soft. Add the finely chopped shallots and cook for 2 minutes more, or until the shallots are translucent.
  • In a medium-sized saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the diced celery, leeks, shallots and onion. Saute for about 5 minutes. Add the wine and, over high heat, reduce the liquid until it almost totally evaporates. Add 1 cup of water, the garlic, thyme and lemon juice and reduce it by a fourth. There should be 6 ounces of liquid. Strain through a sieve, pressing on the vegetables to release the juices. While the liquid is hot, pour it into a blender. Whir the liquid, adding 8 ounces of butter tablespoon by tablespoon. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Pour the broth back into the pan and stir in the chopped parsley and diced tomatoes.
  • To serve, alternate slices of potato with mushrooms. Spoon the celery sauce over the potatoes and serve.

Meh. It was okay. I've had better lasagna before. The potato layers were a bit dry, and the overall flavor was just average. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This potato lasagna was a fun twist on the classic dish. The wild mushrooms added a nice depth of flavor, and the herb sauce was light and refreshing. I would definitely recommend trying this recipe!

I found this recipe to be a bit too complicated and time-consuming. The end result was good, but not worth all the effort. I think I'll stick to my regular lasagna recipe from now on.

Not bad, but not the best lasagna I've ever had. The potato layers were a bit too thick for my liking, and the herb sauce was a bit bland. Overall, it was an okay dish, but I wouldn't make it again.

Tried this recipe last night and it was a success! The potato lasagna was creamy, flavorful, and packed with umami from the wild mushrooms. I'm already planning on making it again next week for friends.

I'm not a huge fan of lasagna, but this potato version totally changed my mind. The flavors were incredibly well-balanced, and the herb sauce had the perfect amount of tanginess. Will definitely make it again!
