Potato And Nut Terrine Recipes

SIMPLY POTATOES MEDITERRANEAN TERRINE #5FIX

Steps:

• Line the inside of a 2-cup bowl with plastic wrap. Let the ends extend over the sides for several inches.
• In a mixing bowl, stir together the mashed Simply Potatoes and goat cheese. Spoon about one-third of the potato mixture into the bowl and smooth to an even layer. Top with pesto spread evenly. Add another third of the potatoes and top with sun-dried tomatoes and half of the pine nuts. Add remaining potatoes. Pack down smoothly and fold the plastic wrap over the edges to cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• About thirty minutes before serving, loosen the terrine from the bowl and invert onto the serving plate. Remove plastic. The terrine will taste best at room temperature. Serve with pita chips.

• Oil four 8-ounce oven-proof ramekins with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Place a bay leaf in the bottom of each. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Cut one of the potatoes into slices 1/16 inch thick, and arrange the slices in the bottom of each ramekin. Season with salt and pepper, top the slices with about a tablespoon of the goat cheese and a slice of truffle. Repeat the layers, ending with the last potato.
• Drizzle the tops of the ramekins with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and cover with foil. Place in the oven, and bake 1 1/2 hours.
• Allow the ramekins to cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
• In a bowl, toss the mache with the remaining olive oil and the vinegar. Unmold the cooked potato mixture from each of the ramekins, and serve with the mache on the side. If desired, top each portion of the salad with a slice of pate de foie gras.

• Freeze terrine until firm on edges but not frozen through, about 2 hours. Slice terrine into eight 1-inch-thick slices (do not remove foil). Transfer slices to baking sheet and freeze 10 minutes.
• Lightly coat cut sides of terrine slices with flour. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add slices and cook until vegetables are heated through and cheese begins to melt, about 2 minutes per side. Remove foil from slices. Arrange slices on plates and serve.
