Potato Cake - Gateau De Pommes De Terre image

Adapted from Sundays at the Moosewood. This is a gratin version, which I think could work with vegan cheese subs, using a lesser amount. Slice and serve with a crisp green salad and tomatoes for a light dinner.

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
1 large Spanish onion, sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
sea salt (to taste)
black pepper, freshly ground (to taste)
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped (or 2 tsp dried, or sub 1 tsp fresh or 1/2 tsp dried rosemary)
1/2 lb swiss cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a bowl toss the sliced potatoes, onion, garlic and bay leaves in the olive oil. Spread them onto a baking sheet, cover (ie with foil), and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the cover/foil and bake another 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are fully cooked.
  • Combine the remaining seasonings in a bowl with the grated cheese.
  • Oil a 9 inch round baking dish, layer in the potatoes with the cheese mixture, saving some cheese to sprinkle on top.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, watch for the cheese to be melted and bubbling. Keep an eye on the top that it doesn't burn.
