Time 1h25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large baking potatoes (about 3 lbs I have also used 3 lbs of red potatoes. Your preference.)
6 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 medium onion, chopped
3/4 lb fresh white mushroom, sliced thin
1 1/2 lbs spinach, stemmed & washed
1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
1/2 lb gruyere cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Grease 2 large baking sheets& set them aside.
  • Scrub potatoes under cold water.
  • Do not peel.
  • Cut potatoes lengthwise into 1/4 inch thick slices.
  • Place slices in a large bowl.
  • Add 4 T olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper to bowl.
  • Toss the potatoes gently coating them as best you can.
  • It is easiest to do by hand, but a little messy.
  • Once tossed, lay potatoes out on prepared baking sheets.
  • Try not to overlap.
  • Cover pans tightly with aluminum foil& bake for 30 minutes (see below what to do while potatoes are baking).
  • When done, remove pans from oven.
  • Uncover to cool.
  • Do not turn oven off.
  • While potatoes are baking, heat remaining 2 T oil in a large pot.
  • Add onions and cook over medium heat until soft (about 5 minutes).
  • Add mushrooms until they throw off their juices (about another 5 minutes).
  • Stir in spinach.
  • then add salt& pepper to taste.
  • Cover and cook til spinach wilts (about 4 minutes).
  • Uncover and cook off any liquid in the pot.
  • Remove the pot from heat and stir in ricotta.
  • Grease a 13 X 9 inch baking pan.
  • Line the bottom of pan with 1/3 of potatoes.
  • Spoon 1/2 spinach mixture over layer of potatoes& sprinkle with 1/3 of cheese.
  • Make another layer of potatoes, cover with remaining spinach mixture& another 1/3 of the cheese.
  • Lastly, cover with remaining potatoes& sprinkle the rest of the cheese.
  • Bake until the casserole turns golden brown on top.
  • Approximately 25 minutes.
  • Remove pan from oven& let settle for 5 minutes before cutting up slices.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or red potatoes, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as Russet potatoes, making them ideal for casseroles.
  • Slice the potatoes thinly: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When sautéing the potatoes, make sure to give them enough space so that they can brown properly.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main flavors in this dish, so it's important to use a cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese would be a good choice.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach wilts quickly, so it's important to only cook it for a few minutes until it is wilted but still bright green.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the casserole before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.

Conclusion:

This winter spinach potato casserole is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
