Potato Tart With Bacon Gruyere And Rosemary Recipes

POTATO TART WITH BACON, GRUYERE, AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it's nice and crispy (about 10 minutes). Drain the bacon strips on a paper towel, and pat the excess grease off. Crumble or chop your bacon up into small bits.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Peel the potatoes, then slice them into 1/16″ thick rounds using a mandolin or a knife.
• Line the potato slices up side by side in one even layer inside the unbaked tart shell. Season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle over 2 tbsp of bacon, 3 tbsp gruyere, and a pinch of rosemary.
• Repeat 3 more times, until you have 4 layers of potatoes. Drizzle 1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil on top, and if you are using a tart pan with a removable bottom, place the tart on a sheet pan so butter doesn't drip out from the bottom and burn in your oven.
• Bake for 45 minutes. Enjoy!

POTATO, BACON, GRUYERE TART - POTATO PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• To make the crust: In a food processor place flour, salt and butter. Pulse until mixture becomes a fine meal. Add the vinegar and the cold water. Keep pulsing until the mixture comes together.
• Remove from food processor and dust with flour. On a floured surface roll out into a 12" circle. Fit into a 10" tart pan. Poke bottom with a fork, cover and place in the freezer for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Blind bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately brush the bottom and sides with egg wash while hot. This will seal the tart shell.
• Slice potatoes as thinly as possible. Place in water to keep them from turning brown.
• In a skillet heat olive oil on medium and sauté the onion slices until soft and translucent. Sprinkle with herbes de Provence and salt. Set aside to cool.
• Place the brown sugar, pepper and nutmeg in a small bowl. Microwave the diced bacon until just about crispy. Discard the grease and place the bacon in a small skillet on medium heat then add the brown sugar mixture. Stir until the sugars dissolves into the bacon. Set aside and allow to cool.
• Arrange the potatoes forming concentric circles all around the bottom of the tart. Place half the onions on top. Next, add half of the Gruyere cheese, and half of the bacon. Repeat the process.
• Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft when tested with a toothpick. Tip: When the potatoes are soft turn on the broiler and watch carefully to brown the cheese on top then serve.
• Remove from oven and garnish with parsley.

BACON POTATO CHEDDAR TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix the minced onions and garlic together.
• Get a skillet (all metal, no rubber or plastic handles) or pie dish.
• Coat the cooking area of the skillet with cooking spray.
• Cut the parchment paper into a circle that covers the cooking area of the skillet, and place it in side the skillet.
• Start lining the center of the skillet with a layer of bacon in a fan pattern, with one end of the bacon at the center and the other end hangs over the end of the skill. Each slice should overlap about a 3rd to half of the width of a bacon slice. Take care to stagger the bacon at the center so you don't end up with a very thick layer of bacon in the center of the pan.
• Slice your potatoes in about 1/4 inch thick slices.
• After the skillet is completely covered with bacon, start adding potato slices in layers inside the skillet on top of the bacon, creating a layer of potato on top of the bacon.
• After completely adding a layer of potato that covers the bottom of the skillet, sprinkle some pepper, onions/garlic mixture, and a generous portion of cheddar on top of each layer.
• Repeat the previous 2 steps until the potato & cheese layers are stacked about 1 inch above the top of the skillet.
• Fold all of the bacon stips on top of the stack of potato until the top layer is completely covered.
• Place a small, metal skillet or pot cover on top of the tart to hold the bacon in place during baking.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 2 hours and 30 minutes.
