POTATO LEEK GRATIN



Potato Leek Gratin image

Layer thinly sliced potatoes in a gratin dish, and then take your time sautéing the leeks, letting them turn a little golden and crisp around the edges, which brings out their sweetness. Add the leeks to the potatoes, and using the same pan in which you cooked the leeks, scrape up the brown bits at the bottom of the pan with a mix of cream, garlic, thyme and nutmeg, pouring that over the potatoes and leeks.

1 bay leaf

SCALLOPED POTATOES WITH TOMATOES AND BELL PEPPERS



Scalloped Potatoes With Tomatoes and Bell Peppers image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 large egg yolks
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 cloves garlic, smashed
2 bay leaves
1 pound russet potatoes, peeled, sliced 1/8 inch thick and patted dry
1 1/2 cups coarsely grated gruyere cheese (about 6 ounces)
4 plum tomatoes, sliced 3/4 inch thick
2 bell peppers (yellow or orange), cut into 3/4-inch-thick strips
1 onion, halved and sliced 1/2 inch thick
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the baking dish
3 teaspoons herbes de Provence
1 1/4 cups breadcrumbs (preferably fresh)

Steps:

  • Whisk the egg yolks and 1/2 cup milk in a small bowl and set aside. Combine the remaining 1 cup milk and 1 cup cream in a medium saucepan; stir in the nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add the garlic and bay leaves and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to medium low; add the potatoes and simmer until halfway cooked, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat. Gradually stir in the egg-milk mixture and 1 cup gruyere. Cover and keep warm.
  • Preheat the broiler. Put the tomatoes, bell peppers and onion on a baking sheet in separate piles. Drizzle each pile with 2 teaspoons olive oil and sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence, and salt and pepper to taste. Toss each pile of vegetables to coat, then spread out the piles. Broil until tender and charred around the edges, about 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brush a 1 1/2-quart baking dish with olive oil. Sprinkle half of the breadcrumbs (1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons) in the dish. Spoon out half of the potatoes and arrange evenly over the breadcrumbs; top with the broiled onions and half each of the tomatoes and bell peppers. Top with the remaining potatoes in an even layer and all of the cream mixture; discard the garlic and bay leaves. Top with the remaining tomatoes and bell peppers.
  • Bake until the potatoes are tender and lightly golden, 40 to 50 minutes. Drizzle with the remaining 1/2 cup cream and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs and 1/2 cup gruyere. Continue baking until the cheese melts, about 5 more minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

SCALLOPED POTATOES



Scalloped Potatoes image

This recipe comes from Cheryl Rogowski, whose family has been farming the rich black earth on their patch of Orange County, N.Y., for more than 50 years. They started growing Keuka Golds because the two best-known potatoes in the country - russets and Yukon Golds - did not grow well there. Keukas have yellow flesh, rich flavor and pale skin like Yukons, but they can handle the region's drastic temperature swings, short growing season, divergent soils and uneven rainfall. For this dish, Yukons work equally well.

Categories     side dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons butter, more for greasing pie plate
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium leek, white and light green parts only, minced
4 small cipollini onions or 1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons minced tarragon (or 1 to 2 teaspoons dried tarragon) plus 1 tablespoon finely chopped, for garnish
3 cups heavy cream
2 pounds (about 6 medium) Keuka Gold or Yukon Gold potatoes (unpeeled), sliced 1/8-inch thick
Kosherr salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch deep-dish glass pie plate.
  • In a wide saucepan, combine 3 tablespoons butter, garlic, leek and onions. Place over medium-low heat and sauté until mixture is light golden, about 15 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons tarragon, the cream and potatoes, and mix well. Simmer gently until potatoes are barely tender, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to pie plate, spreading them evenly and pressing lightly to compact them. Drizzle with 2 to 3 tablespoons of cream from pan. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake until top is light golden brown, about 10 more minutes. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Garnish with a sprinkling of chopped tarragon, and serve.

Tips:

  • Select the Right Potatoes: Choose a variety of potato that holds its shape well during baking, such as Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes.
  • Slice the Potatoes Thinly: Use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice the potatoes thinly and evenly. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Use High-Quality Leeks: Select fresh, tender leeks with a mild flavor. Trim the dark green tops and the root ends before slicing.
  • Layer the Ingredients Properly: Start with a layer of potatoes, then add the leeks, and repeat until all the ingredients are used up. Season each layer with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Use a flavorful cheese: Choose a cheese that melts well and has a strong flavor, such as cheddar, Gruyère, or Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake Until Golden Brown: Bake the scalloped potatoes in a preheated oven until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Conclusion:

Scalloped potatoes with leeks and cream is an easy and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. The creamy sauce, tender potatoes, and flavorful leeks make this dish a favorite among both adults and children.
