POTATO GRATIN WITH SWISS CHARD AND SUMAC ONIONS



Potato Gratin With Swiss Chard and Sumac Onions image

This is not your typical potato gratin: The Cheddar and brown-butter pine nuts make it rich but not overly so, as the sumac onions and lemon juice lift the gratin to vibrant heights. Sumac is a tart and astringent spice used heavily in Middle Eastern cooking, adding sharpness to food where needed. These onions are great thrown into pasta and salads, or served with roasted chicken. The gratin can stand as a veggie main with a zesty salad alongside, as an accompaniment to your protein of choice or as part of a larger spread. Get ahead by making the onions and preparing all your ingredients (except the potatoes) well in advance, so they're ready to be assembled together before baking. Once the whole thing goes in the oven, you'll have ample time to get any accompaniments ready. You can serve this warm, but it also sits well to be served at room temperature.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup/60 milliliters olive oil
1 1/2 pounds/680 grams red onions, peeled, halved and sliced about 1-centimeter thick
Kosher salt
1 1/2 tablespoons dried sumac
2 1/2 pounds/1.1 kilograms (skin-on) Yukon Gold potatoes, sliced using a mandoline or very thinly sliced into rounds
1 3/4 pounds/800 grams green Swiss chard, leaves torn from stems (stems reserved for another use) and roughly shredded (about 6 packed cups/315 grams)
2/3 cup/30 grams roughly chopped fresh parsley, plus 2 tablespoons/5 grams finely chopped parsley for garnish
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest, plus 1/4 cup juice (from 2 lemons)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces/225 grams mature Cheddar, roughly grated (about 3 cups)
1 cup/240 milliliters chicken or vegetable stock
3 tablespoons heavy cream (double cream)
2 tablespoons/30 grams unsalted butter
1/2 cup/65 grams pine nuts
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit/180 degrees Celsius.
  • Prepare the onions: Add the oil to a large, ovenproof lidded skillet and heat over medium-high. Add the onions and 1 teaspoon salt to the hot oil and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the sumac and remove from the heat. Transfer the mixture to a bowl.
  • Prepare the gratin: Add the potatoes, shredded chard, parsley, garlic, lemon zest, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to a large bowl and mix well to combine. Fold through three-quarters of the sumac onions and half the cheese, then transfer everything to the skillet, smoothing out the top to even out the potato slices. In a measuring cup or bowl, combine the stock, cream and lemon juice, and pour this all over the potato mixture. Cover tightly with foil, then top with the lid. Bake for 1 hour.
  • Remove the gratin from the oven, and remove the lid and foil. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining cheese and bake, uncovered, until golden and bubbling, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat and let gratin settle for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the pine nuts: Add the butter to a medium skillet and melt over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the pine nuts and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the nuts are golden and the butter has browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the buttered nuts to the bowl with the remaining sumac onions.
  • When ready to serve, stir the extra parsley into the sumac onion mixture and spoon this all over the gratin.

Categories     casseroles, side dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Salt
1 pound Swiss chard leaves and slender stems, stems cut into 1/4-inch cubes
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 garlic clove, smashed
1 small shallot, sliced
2 thyme sprigs
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
3 pounds (6 to 8 medium) Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled
1 tablespoon butter, at room temperature
Pepper
6 ounces grated Gruyère

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees, and place rack in the center. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; set a bowl of ice water on the side. Boil the chard leaves until tender, 3 to 5 minutes, then transfer with a slotted spoon to the ice water. Squeeze them dry and chop roughly. Boil the diced stems until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain well and add to chopped chard leaves.
  • In a small saucepan, bring the heavy cream, garlic, shallot, thyme and bay leaf to a simmer. Cook until reduced by half, about 25 minutes. Strain out the solids and add the nutmeg.
  • Meanwhile, slice the potatoes into 1/8-inch-thick rounds with a mandoline or sharp knife. Butter a 12- to 14-inch gratin dish. Assemble the gratin by layering the ingredients in this order: a single, slightly overlapping layer of one-third of the potato slices, a sprinkling of salt and pepper, one-third of the Gruyère, half the Swiss chard and one-third of the reduced cream. Repeat once, and then top with one more layer of potato, salt and pepper, and the rest of the Gruyère and cream.
  • Bake until the top is browned and the potatoes are fork-tender, about 45 minutes.

Provided by Papa D 1946-2012

Categories     Potato

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs red-skinned boiling potatoes
1 cup ricotta cheese
3/4 cup chopped parsley
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
nutmeg, to taste
1 egg
1 cup heavy cream (approximately)
sweet butter, for greasing baking dish
1/4 lb gruyere cheese, grated (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Wash potatoes well and trim away any discolored spots or eyes.
  • (You may peel potatoes if you like.) Slice thin and drop into a pot of cold, heavily salted water. Set over high heat and bring to a boil. Boil potatoes for 1 minute, drain, and rinse with cold water. Drain again and pat dry.
  • Combine ricotta and parsley and season generously with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
  • Beat the egg briefly and add enough heavy cream to make 1 cup of liquid. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
  • Lightly butter a shallow, oval gratin dish measuring 9 x 12 inches. Arrange a layer of slightly overlapping potato slices in the dish. Dot with about one third of the ricotta mixture; sprinkle with one third of the Gruyère. Repeat, using all of the ingredients and ending with a potato layer.
  • Gently pour the egg and cream mixture into the dish, lifting potato slices with a fork if necessary to allow the cream to spread evenly among them.
  • Bake on the center rack of a preheated 350°F oven for 35 to 45 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and the cheese is browned and bubbling. Let sit for about 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a mandoline slicer for even and thin potato slices. This will help ensure that the potatoes cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the potatoes in the pan. If you do, they will steam instead of fry and will not get crispy.
  • Use a combination of olive oil and butter for frying the potatoes. This will give them a nice golden color and flavor.
  • Season the potatoes with salt and pepper before frying. This will help enhance their flavor.
  • Add the Swiss chard and sumac onions to the potatoes towards the end of cooking. This will help prevent them from becoming overcooked.
  • Serve the potato gratin hot and topped with additional grated Parmesan cheese.

Conclusion:

Potato gratin is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy texture, crispy potatoes, and flavorful Swiss chard and sumac onions, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
