Categories     side-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small shallot, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 cups half-and-half
1 to 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 cup grated sharp white cheddar cheese
1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish with 1 tablespoon butter. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan. Once the butter foams, add the shallot and garlic and saute until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and add the half-and-half, smoked paprika and potatoes. Bring to a low simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Pour half of the potato mixture into the buttered casserole dish. Shake the pan to arrange the potatoes in a single layer. Sprinkle half of each of the cheeses on top of the bottom potato layer. Add the remaining potatoes and shake again to arrange in a layer. Sprinkle on the remaining cheese, cover with foil and bake 45 minutes, or until bubbling. Remove the foil and place back in the oven for another 15 minutes, or until the potatoes and cheese are golden and browned. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

SMOKY CHEDDAR, CHORIZO AND SWEET POTATO POT PIES



Smoky Cheddar, Chorizo and Sweet Potato Pot Pies image

Provided by Damaris Phillips

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 stalks celery, diced
1 small yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound fresh Mexican chorizo or soy-based chorizo sausage, casings removed
1 pound sweet potatoes, parcooked (see Cook's Note)
1 cup frozen peas
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups vegetable stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded smoked Cheddar
1/4 bunch fresh parsley, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 box refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts)
1 large egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to a large saucepan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the celery and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, chorizo, sweet potatoes and peas. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the flour. Stir and cook to remove the raw flour flavor, about 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the vegetable stock and the cream. Bring to a simmer to allow the sauce to thicken; it should coat the back of a spoon, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the cheese and the parsley and remove from the heat. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place six 8-ounce ramekins in a baking dish or a rimmed baking sheet. Fill each with the chorizo mixture until 1/2-inch from the top (the number of pies you get depends on the size of the ramekins). Let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, roll out the pie crust and, using a large biscuit cutter, cut a circle of dough large enough to cover the entire top of the ramekin and fall over the sides. Repeat until all the ramekins are covered. Brush the dough with the egg, cut 2 to 3 slits in the top to allow steam to escape and bake until golden and the dough is cooked through, 20 to 22 minutes.

Tips:

  • Selecting Potatoes: Choose firm, unblemished potatoes that are relatively uniform in size. This will ensure even cooking and a consistent texture throughout the dish.
  • Cutting Technique: For even browning and faster cooking, cut the potatoes into uniform wedges or cubes. Consistency in size will help them cook evenly.
  • Seasoning Magic: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A flavorful blend of paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper will elevate the taste of the potatoes.
  • Cheese Choice: Use a good quality cheddar cheese for the ultimate smoky flavor. You can also experiment with different types of cheese, such as mozzarella or Parmesan, to add variety.
  • Perfect Crisp: To achieve a crispy exterior and tender interior, toss the potatoes in a mixture of olive oil and melted butter before roasting. This will help them brown beautifully in the oven.
  • Roast Wisely: Roast the potatoes in a preheated oven at a high temperature (425°F or 220°C) for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
  • Flavorful Finish: Once roasted, sprinkle the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley or chives for an extra burst of flavor and color. This touch adds a vibrant finishing touch to the dish.

Conclusion:

Loaded with flavor and irresistibly crispy, these smoky cheddar potatoes are a sure-fire hit at any gathering.
