Swiss Raclette image

I tried this for the first time last summer in Switzerland and fell in love! It is delicious!! I know they sell Raclette pans but this is a version that's easy to do at home with the equipment you already have. Notes: Any smooth-melting cheese - cheddar, fontal, fontina, gouda, gruyère, jack, Swiss, taleggio, or teleme, even brie - can stand in for raclette. You can bake or boil potatoes.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 lbs thin-skinned potatoes, scrubbed (1 to 1 1/2 in. wide)
1 cup cocktail onion (to taste)
1 lb raclette cheese (see notes)
1 cup cornichon pickle (to taste)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Put potatoes in a 4- to 5-quart pan. Barely cover with water, put lid on pan, and place over high heat. When boiling, reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender when pierced, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, Slice cheese; arrange in a shallow 8- by 11-inch casserole or 4 individual casseroles, each about 5 inches wide.
  • When potatoes are cooked, drain off most of the water and keep warm.
  • Broil cheese about 6 inches below heat until melted, about 5 minutes.
  • To eat, put potatoes, onion, and pickles on dinner plates. Spoon hot cheese, a few bites at a time, over potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. If cheese in casserole gets hard, return to broiler to soften, 3 to 4 minutes.

The raclette was good, but it was a little too rich for my taste. I think I'll use a lighter cheese next time.
