Another terrific recipe from Wolfgang Puck. This is a very impressive and yummy side dish for the holidays. A great alternative to the "usual" sweet potato dish. Note: Ideally you should use a tart pan with removable sides & bottom.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 granny smith apples, peeled, cored, cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled, sliced into rounds, 1/8-inch thick for even baking
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Melt 2T butter in a 10" skillet over med-high heat.
  • Add apples; cook stirring often until caramelized, about 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile butter the tart pan.
  • Place the sweet potatoes in a mixing bowl; season with cinnamon, salt and white pepper.
  • Drizzle with 1/4 cup of melted butter and mix to coat potatoes.
  • Arrange a layer of sweet potatoes in the tart pan, overlapping in circles, using about half the potatoes in all.
  • Arrange apples evenly over the potatoes.
  • Top with remaining sweet potatoes.
  • Drizzle with remaining 2T melted butter.
  • Place the tart pan on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake until the potatoes are crispy and tender, about 35 minutes.
  • Heat broiler; place potatoes under broiler until edges are crispy and begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Cut into wedges to serve.
  • My NOTES:.
  • Do not assemble too far ahead of time before baking or the potatoes will turn dark & ugly.
  • Very important to slice potatoes thinly.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 amaretti (Italian almond macaroons; from 4 paper-wrapped bundles), finely ground in a food processor (1/3 cup)
1 1/2 oz Italian Fontina, coarsely grated (1/2 cup)
1 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
7/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 lb sweet potatoes (2 medium)
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 lb Gala apples (3 medium)
1/2 teaspoon salt
Special Equipment
an adjustable-blade slicer; a 12-inch ovenproof heavy skillet; an apple corer

Steps:

  • Stir together amaretti crumbs, cheeses, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
  • Peel sweet potatoes and thinly slice crosswise (1/16 inch thick) with slicer, then generously brush bottom of skillet with some melted butter and cover with one third of sweet-potato slices, overlapping slightly. Dab potatoes with butter, then sprinkle evenly with half of amaretti mixture.
  • Core and peel apples, then thinly slice crosswise (into 1/16-inch-thick rings) with slicer. Working quickly to prevent apples from discoloring, add half of apples to skillet, overlapping slices slightly, and sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Top with half of remaining sweet-potato slices and dab with butter, then sprinkle with remaining amaretti mixture. Cover with remaining apples in an even layer. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and cover with remaining sweet potatoes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Brush a sheet of foil with butter, then brush galette with any remaining butter and place foil, buttered side down, on top. Place a 10-inch heavy skillet on top of foil to weight galette.
  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Cook potato galette on top of stove over moderate heat until underside is golden, about 10 minutes. Remove top skillet and foil.
  • Wearing oven mitts, carefully slide galette onto a baking sheet and invert skillet over it. Holding them together, invert galette, browned side up, back into skillet. Cook, uncovered, over moderately high heat until underside is pale golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and bake galette until a knife inserted in center cuts through easily, about 20 minutes. Slide onto a serving plate.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady apples are all good choices for this galette because they hold their shape well when baked.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the apples. This will help to prevent the apples from browning.
  • Don't overcrowd the galette. Leave some space between the apple slices so that they can cook evenly.
  • Brush the edges of the galette with milk. This will help to brown the crust.
  • Serve the galette warm or at room temperature. It's also delicious topped with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

This sweet potato apple galette is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. The sweet potatoes give the galette a unique flavor and texture, while the apples add a touch of sweetness and tartness. The galette is also gluten-free and vegan, making it a great option for people with dietary restrictions.
