Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large russet potatoes
1 tablespoon butter
3 -4 garlic cloves
2 cups of grated monterey jack cheese (3/4 of a small brick)
14 -21 ounces beef broth (about 1-1.5 cans)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Peel garlic cloves. Slice them in half and rub the freshly sliced sides onto a pie plate to leave a garlic flavor. Butter the pie plate.
  • Peel and slice the potatoes very thin (1/8" thick or less) with a food processor or a careful hand.
  • Boil the beef broth with the leftover garlic cloves.
  • Layer half of the potatoes in the bottom of the pie plate. Top with half of the cheese. Liberally salt and pepper. Repeat this process for a second layer. (Don't overflow the pie plate, use as much as you can so that it fits properly with some room at the top for the broth to boil).
  • Remove the garlic cloves and pour most of the boiling broth over the potatoes and cheese. The broth should come almost to the top of the potatoes. Save leftover broth to add near the end.
  • Microwave the potatoes on high until they are done. You should be able to sink a fork into the slices with ease. This usually takes 8 minutes (but up to 15 for larger slices or more potatoes).
  • Place the dish in a 350 degree oven for about ½ hour to brown. Pour in remaining broth if desired.

This is the ultimate in meat-and-potatoes comfort food. Don't even look at the nutritional information if you're dieting! While I didn't have the source written down, I'm pretty sure that this comes straight from Julia. Nobody could combine potatoes, cheese, and butter like her. ;)

POTATOES SAVOYARD



Potatoes Savoyard image

I was tired of baked, mashed, au gratin, and potatoes with onions so tried this. The beef broth gives it a wonderful flavor. Try it with different cheeses depending on what you have on hand!

Categories     Potato

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups raw potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon all purpose Greek seasoning (or to taste)
cracked black pepper
2 cups swiss cheese, grated
1 1/4 cups boiling beef broth

Steps:

  • Peel and slice potatoes, and cover with cold water until ready to use.
  • In a lightly greased 6 to 8 cup baking dish, place two cups of potatoes on bottom, overlapping layers.
  • Dot with half the butter; sprinkle with half the parsley, salt, Greek seasoning, pepper, and cheese.
  • Place second layer of potatoes on top of first and repeat layer of butter, seasonings, and cheese.
  • Pour boiling beef broth over the casserole.
  • Bake uncovered in a preheated 400 degree Fahrenheit oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until potatoes are fork tender, potato tops are browned, and broth is absorbed.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality potatoes. Yukon Gold, russet, and fingerling potatoes are all good choices for this dish.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you are using a large pan, you may need to cook the potatoes in batches.
  • Be patient. It takes time for the potatoes to brown and crisp.
  • Season the potatoes well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good options.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately. They are best when they are hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Potatoes Savoyard is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The potatoes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the cheese and bacon add a flavorful touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
