Tartiflette image

This is what I like to think of as the French answer to scalloped potatoes. It comes from the Haute Savoie region of France and can be very rich, although this is a slightly lighter version than others I've seen. I have also had tartiflette as a vegetarian dish by substituting some root vegetables for the bacon.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups strong cheese, crumbled and firmly packed (reblochon if you can find it although emmenthal, muenster or gruyère will work as well)
1 kg waxy potato (red ones are good)
200 g lardons (diced smoked bacon)
1 onion
butter
1 cup white wine
4 tablespoons cream
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the potatoes in boiling water until a little undercooked.
  • Reserve.
  • Melt the butter in a sauté pan and gently cook sliced onion and lardons, without letting them brown.
  • Slice the potatoes thickly, add them and continue to cook gently for 10 minutes.
  • Add the white wine and allow to reduce.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat the oven to moderately hot, butter a gratin dish, and put the potato mixture in it.
  • Pour over the cream.
  • Place the cheese on top and put in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese has melted into the potatoes.
  • Serve with a lightly dressed green salad.
