Sweet Potato-Apple Galette image

Another terrific recipe from Wolfgang Puck. This is a very impressive and yummy side dish for the holidays. A great alternative to the "usual" sweet potato dish. Note: Ideally you should use a tart pan with removable sides & bottom.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 granny smith apples, peeled, cored, cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled, sliced into rounds, 1/8-inch thick for even baking
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Melt 2T butter in a 10" skillet over med-high heat.
  • Add apples; cook stirring often until caramelized, about 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile butter the tart pan.
  • Place the sweet potatoes in a mixing bowl; season with cinnamon, salt and white pepper.
  • Drizzle with 1/4 cup of melted butter and mix to coat potatoes.
  • Arrange a layer of sweet potatoes in the tart pan, overlapping in circles, using about half the potatoes in all.
  • Arrange apples evenly over the potatoes.
  • Top with remaining sweet potatoes.
  • Drizzle with remaining 2T melted butter.
  • Place the tart pan on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake until the potatoes are crispy and tender, about 35 minutes.
  • Heat broiler; place potatoes under broiler until edges are crispy and begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Cut into wedges to serve.
  • My NOTES:.
  • Do not assemble too far ahead of time before baking or the potatoes will turn dark & ugly.
  • Very important to slice potatoes thinly.
