Provided by Tyler Florence

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 large onion, sliced
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 large Russet potatoes, washed
2 to 3 tablespoons butter, broken into small pieces
Special equipment: parchment paper cut into large circle to fit saute pan

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Set a large skillet over medium heat and add 4 tablespoons of olive oil. Add sliced onions and cook over medium heat for 10 to 12 minutes until they are tender and brown all over.
  • Using a mandolin (or sharp knife), finely slice the potatoes into rounds (you can place them in a bowl with a wet towel over the top to stop them from going brown while you work). Place the potatoes into a bowl and season with salt and pepper. When ready, add the onions and toss to combine without breaking potatoes.
  • Add about 1 tablespoon water to the same pan the onions were cooked in and allow it to come to a bubble. Using layered paper towels, wipe the pan clean.
  • Add some extra-virgin olive oil to the pan and add the potatoes to the pan, making sure the potatoes are flat. Top with the diced butter.
  • Take a piece of parchment paper and fold in half. Find the middle of the parchment along the crease and hold in place with your finger. Taking the right side of the parchment, pull it towards the center and fold it straight down to create a diagonal edge. Fold the parchment in half to create a triangle. Place the pointed edge in the middle of the saute pan on top of the potatoes to find its radius. Make a marker of where the pan edge ends (or starts). At this point you can cut the parchment at this marker and open to reveal a circle.
  • Cover the potatoes with the parchment paper and press down. Drizzle some extra-virgin olive oil over the top so it down burn and rub it in.
  • Place the pan into the oven on the top rack and bake for about 45 minutes.
  • When done remove from oven and run a knife around the edge to separate from the pan. Place a large plate on top of the saute pan and flip. Remove the saute pan. Allow to cool slightly before cutting into slices.

Caramelized Onion and Sweet Potato Tart image

It may look daunting, but this is worth the effort! I've made this for some very picky eaters and I have yet to hear a complaint! If you cannot find Manchego cheese (it is a soft Spanish cheese) or Gruyere, you can use mozzarella and Swiss instead. I have done this before with good results.

Categories     Potato

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

375 g shortcrust pastry
2 tablespoons olive oil
450 g onions, sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon thyme
750 g floury potatoes, peeled & sliced
2 eggs
200 ml creme fraiche
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 220C/fan200C/Gas7. Use the pastry to line the base and sides of a swiss roll tin 23x33cm. Heat the oil in a large frying pan; fry the onions for 8-10 minutes until just beginning to caramelise. Stir in the garlic and most of the thyme; cook for a further 2 minutes. Scatter half into the case.
  • Parboil the potatoes in salted boiling water for 4-5 minutes; drain well and arrange in the case. Scatter over the remaining onions.
  • Beat together the eggs, creme fraiche and mustard. Season well and pour over the top. Scatter over the rest of the thyme and bake the tart for 20 minutes, until the filling has set and is golden.

Tips:

  • Use a mandoline or a sharp knife to thinly slice the potatoes and onions. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a regular pie plate. Just trim the edges of the pastry so that it fits the pan.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This usually takes about 30-35 minutes.
  • Let the tart cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the filling to set.
  • Serve the tart warm or at room temperature. It can be enjoyed as a main course or as a side dish.
