Best Leek Gruyere Prosciutto Galette Recipes

LEEK, GRUYERE & PROSCIUTTO GALETTE image

Yield Serve 4 for lunch

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 sheet of defrosted frozen puff pastry
4 thin slices of good Prosciutto di Parma
3 leeks, white parts only, sliced thin
olive oil
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
1/2 cup of shredded Gruyere cheese

Steps:

In a heavy skillet, saute the leeks with the thyme in some olive oil for about 3 minutes on medium heat. Season with salt & pepper and set aside. Lay out the defrosted sheet of puff pastry and roll out the edges to thin it out a bit. Carefully lay on a baking sheet (you don't need to grease the pan, since the butter in the puff pastry is enough so it won't stick). Spread 1/4 cup of the grated cheese in the center of the pastry, leaving a border for folding. Spread the leeks on top of the cheese and drape the prosciutto slices decoratively on top. Sprinkle with the rest of the grated cheese and fold the edges over to make a package.

Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 tablespoons butter, melted
3 pounds (5 to 6 medium) baking potatoes, peeled
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 leek, white and light-green parts, thinly sliced crosswise, well washed
6 ounces Gruyere cheese, coarsely grated (about 1 1/2 cups)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack set in top third. Line bottom of a 9-inch cake pan with a round of parchment paper. Place melted butter in a large bowl. Using a mandoline or cutting by hand, slice the potatoes 1/8 inch thick; add to bowl with butter. Season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. In prepared pan, arrange some of the potatoes around edge of pan, overlapping the slices.
Fill center of pan with more overlapping slices. Sprinkle with half the leek and half the cheese; season with salt and pepper. Repeat with another layer of potatoes and remaining leek and cheese; season with salt and pepper. Top with remaining potatoes. Using a spatula, press galette down firmly.
Bake until potatoes are tender, 70 to 80 minutes, pressing down firmly twice with a spatula during cooking. Run knife around edge of pan. Carefully invert galette onto a plate, remove parchment, and reinvert onto serving plate. Cut into wedges, and serve.
