Potato Gratin With Chicken Broth, Garlic and Thyme image

Pair your lamb roast with a delicious potato gratin and broiled asparagus.

Provided by USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson

Categories     Side Dish     Potato Side Dish Recipes

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 garlic cloves, peeled
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme leaves
4 pounds starchy potatoes, such as russets, peeled
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cups canned or cartoned chicken broth

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to lowest position. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • With motor running, drop garlic through the feeder tube of a food processor to mince. Scrape down sides of bowl. With motor running, add oil through feeder tube; continue to process. Transfer to a small bowl, stir in thyme and set aside. Switch to the slicing blade and slice the potatoes (or thinly slice them with a knife).
  • Brush a little of the garlic oil over the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch (or similar size) baking dish. Make 4 layers in this order: potatoes, a generous brushing of the oil, a sprinkling of salt and pepper. Slowly add broth at one corner to avoid washing off garlic and herbs.
  • Bake until most of the broth has been absorbed, about 45 minutes. To brown, move pan to middle rack and broil until spotty brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Let rest so potatoes continue to absorb liquid, about 10 minutes. May be made ahead, held at room temperature while roast cooks, then reheated.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

4 baking potatoes, like russets
4 small leeks, white part only
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1/2 quart heavy cream
Salt
White pepper
Nutmeg
2 racks of lamb, fat cap removed, frenched
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup Dijon mustard
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves, plus 1 tablespoon
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chervil leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
20 cloves garlic, peeled
1 cup dry white wine
2 cups lamb stock or veal stock
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • For the Gratin: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch slices. Slice the leeks into thin circles. Mix the butter and the garlic together and set aside. Season the cream with salt, white pepper, and nutmeg. Layer the potatoes, the leeks, the garlic butter, and then the cream, alternating until the potatoes are lightly covered with the cream. Bake for 30 minutes.
  • For the Lamb: Sear the lamb in olive oil in a roasting pan until golden, fat side down first. Remove and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Brush the mustard onto both sides of the seared lamb. Season with salt and pepper. Mix together all of the herbs. Dredge both sides of the lamb in the herbs, pressing lightly so the herbs adhere. In the same roasting pan the lamb was cooked in, add the 20 cloves of garlic and place the lamb on top. Cook in the oven for 15 minutes or until medium-rare. When cooked remove the lamb from the roasting pan and wrap in aluminum foil to rest.
  • Place the roasting pan on top of the stove over medium heat. Remove the garlic and set aside. Discard all the fat. Add the thyme, white wine, and the stock and reduce by half.
  • Place half of the roasted garlic in a blender. Add the reduced stock and wine mixture and puree until smooth. Add the tablespoon of butter and pulse to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To Serve: Place a large scoop of the gratin in the center of a plate. Slice the lamb every two chops and place on top of the gratin. Pour the sauce over the lamb and garnish with the remaining roasted garlic and your favorite seasonal vegetables.

Yield 4 to 8 servings

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 small onion, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus a few sprigs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup breadcrumbs or matzo meal
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and sliced about 1/4 inch thick
1 3/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, chopped thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the garlic and onion are slightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the wine and cook until mostly evaporated, about 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the breadcrumbs or matzo meal, parsley, chives, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl; reserve 2 tablespoons for topping.
  • Arrange one-third of the potatoes over the onion in the skillet. Sprinkle with half of the remaining crumb mixture; top with another layer of potatoes. Repeat with another layer of the crumb mixture and potatoes. Pour the broth on top. Cover, bring to a boil and cook, undisturbed, 5 minutes.
  • Uncover, sprinkle with the reserved crumb mixture, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Transfer the skillet to the oven; bake until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp on top, about 45 minutes. Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 head garlic, plus 2 cloves
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
4 sprigs rosemary
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, sliced, plus more for the baking dish
3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
3/4 to 1 cup whole milk, warmed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375˚. Slice off about 1/4 inch from the top of the garlic head. Place cut-side up on a piece of foil. Top with the olive oil and a pinch of salt; snap a rosemary sprig in half and place on top of the garlic. Wrap in the foil. Roast until the garlic is soft and golden, about 1 hour. Carefully open the foil and let the garlic cool slightly, then squeeze the cloves out of the skin; discard the rosemary.
  • Meanwhile, butter a 2-quart baking dish. Smash the remaining 2 garlic cloves; add to a large pot along with the potatoes and the remaining 3 rosemary sprigs. Cover with cold water by 1 inch and season generously with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Drain well; discard the rosemary sprigs.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 450˚. Press the potatoes, boiled garlic and roasted garlic through a ricer or food mill back into the pot. (Alternatively, return the potatoes and boiled garlic to the pot along with the roasted garlic and mash with a potato masher.)
  • Fold in the butter until melted. Gradually stir in 3/4 cup milk until smooth. If the potatoes still seem thick, gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup milk as needed. Season with salt.
  • Transfer the mashed potatoes to the prepared baking dish. Bake until browned on top, 30 to 40 minutes.

Provided by CHEF GRPA

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 2h25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 heads garlic, cloves pulled apart, but not peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups creme fraiche (substitute sour cream)
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
3/4 teaspoon dried sage
3/4 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
10 ounces grated young gouda cheese
2 tablespoons butter, softened
2 lbs baking potatoes, peeled and cut crosswise into 1/4 inch slices

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375*F. Place the garlic cloves in a small, ovenproof pan and drizzle them with the olive oil. Roast the garlic in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, for 35 to 45 minutes, until it is tender. Allow the garlic to cool for 10 minutes and then squeeze out the roasted garlic into a clean, medium-sized bowl.
  • Mash the garlic with a fork until it's a smooth paste. Stir the crème fraiche, heavy cream, milk, salt, rosemary, sage, thyme, and ground black pepper until the mixture is smooth. Stir the grated Gouda cheese into the herbed cream mixture.
  • Lower the oven heat to 350°F Butter a large baking dish and spread 2/3 cup of the herbed cream into the bottom of the dish. Layer half of the potatoes into the dish, and spread half of the remaining herbed cream onto the potatoes, and repeat the same process one more time. Press down on the top layer of potatoes, cover the pan with foil or a lid, and bake the gratin for 90 minutes. Allow it to cool for 15 minutes before serving.
  • My Notes: This recipe calls for young Gouda cheese. Young Gouda can be easily identified by looking for a red or yellow wax wrapping. Aged Gouda, slighter bitter and stronger tasting, comes wrapped in black wax.
