Potato And Goat Cheese Galette Recipes

POTATO AND GOAT CHEESE GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 1 1/2-quart gratin dish with the butter.
• Make a layer of overlapping potato slices on the bottom of the dish and sprinkle with half of the garlic and 1/3 of the goat cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat with another layer of potatoes, the remaining garlic, another 1/3 of the cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Finish with a final layer of potatoes and the remaining cheese and season with salt and pepper. Pour the heavy cream over the top of the potatoes and, using your hands, press to condense the layers slightly. Make sure the potatoes are all covered with cream.
• Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the gratin is bubbly and golden brown on top and the potatoes are cooked through. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

POTATO GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Heat clarified butter in a 10 1/2-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat until very hot, but not smoking. Place a sprig of thyme in center of skillet. Arrange potatoes in an overlapping spiral to fill pan (be careful, because the fat may spatter). Season with salt and pepper. Brush the bottom of a medium saute pan with clarified butter, and place over potatoes to weigh them down. Cook until golden brown, about 8 minutes.
• Carefully pour off excess butter, if there is any, and reserve. Turn galette out onto a baking sheet. Place another sprig of thyme in center of skillet. Using two spatulas, carefully return galette to skillet, browned side up. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with saute pan; transfer to oven, and bake until second side is brown and potatoes are cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes more. Remove top saute pan 5 minutes before removing skillet from oven. Carefully slide galette onto cutting board. Cut into wedges, and serve immediately.

SUMMER VEGETABLE AND GOAT CHEESE GALETTES

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir green onions in the hot oil until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
• Combine goat cheese, Parmesan cheese, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl; stir with a fork until blended.
• Gently flatten each puff pastry sheet with a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into four squares. Lightly cut a border about 1/4-inch from the edges of each square using a sharp knife, not going all the way through the dough.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Arrange puff pastry squares on a baking sheet; spread goat cheese mixture on each square. Top each square with onion mixture. Chill in refrigerator for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Arrange zucchini and tomato slices in a pattern on each puff pastry square, allowing vegetables to overlap. Season with salt and black pepper. Drizzle with about 1 teaspoon olive oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until puff pastry is golden brown and puffed, about 20 minutes. Garnish with basil strips.

• Set in the oven for 10 minute.
• Carefully flip potatoes with a wide spatula (or turn over onto a plate, and return to pan) Brown on med heat 5 minute.

POTATO AND GOAT CHEESE GALETTE

Steps:

• Slice and discard the ends of the potatoes. Cut the potatoes into 3/4-inch slices. Cut a round hole out of the center of each slice, forming a sturdy ring with at least 1/2 inch border of potato around the hole. Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a skillet to 300 degrees F. Fry the potato rings until light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and allow to cool enough to handle.
• Fill the potato rings with the goat cheese and coat both sides with gread crumbs. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over moderate heat and saute the potato rings until golden brown on both sides, about 30 to 40 seconds per side.
• Transfer to serving plats and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with olives and chopped basil if desired.
