PROSCIUTTO POTATO BAKE
This was created out of ingredients I had in my fridge before heading on vacation. Amazed at the outcome and my hubby was sad there wasn't more. It's delicious! Experiment with the quantities since I really added what was already here in my kitchen at the time. I thought it would be dry, but it wasn't. As a precaution, I made a warm cheese sauce for adding on top while eating. It wasn't necessary, but it was delicious. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a small casserole dish with olive oil.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook prosciutto in hot oil until crisp, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Drain cooked prosciutto on a plate lined with paper towel; pat slices with paper towel to blot excess grease. Crumble prosciutto.
- Spread about half the potatoes into the bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Arrange about half the mozzarella slices atop the potatoes. Repeat layering with remaining potatoes and cheese. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over the top layer of cheese. Sprinkle crumbled prosciutto over the cheese layer.
- Arrange tomato slices around the edges of the casserole dish. Sprinkle mushroom slices inside the edges of the tomato border. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, garlic powder, and green onion. Cover casserole dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in preheated oven for 50 minutes. Remove and discard foil and switch oven to broil. Continue cooking under the broiler until the top is browned, 5 to 10 minutes more.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with paper towels and another with aluminum foil.
- Peel the potatoes and grate with a grater or the shredding blade of a food processor. Place the potatoes in a bowl, adding the scallions, prosciutto, eggs, flour and pepper. Mix to blend, adding a little more flour if it is too liquid.
- In a deep skillet or frying pan, add enough oil to reach a depth of about 1/4 inch. Heat to about 350 degrees on a frying thermometer. Drop full tablespoons of the potato mixture into the hot oil, flattening each mound with a spatula. Fry about 1 minute on each side, or until golden brown and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on the paper-towel-lined cookie sheet, then arrange in one layer on the aluminum-foil-lined sheet. Change the paper towels as they absorb the oil. Place the cooked pancakes in the oven to keep warm. Continue frying, adding more oil as necessary. Serve hot or at room temperature.

POTATO, PROSCIUTTO & FONTINA CAKE
I'm a huge fan of potatoes! Which is why I love this dish. It's the perfect base for poached eggs at brunch, to sop up the juices of a big rib eye steak (page 156), to complement my fabulous brined pork chops (page 170), or just for lunch. When this was on the menu at my restaurant and I was craving something porky, cheesy, and delicious, I'd have one of the line cooks fry up one of these lovelies for me to eat while I worked. Yum!

Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water; season the water generously with salt.
- Bring the water to a boil (BTB) and reduce to a simmer (RTS). Cook the potatoes for 25 to 30 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain the potatoes well.
- In a small saucepan, heat the cream.
- While the potatoes are still hot, mash with a potato masher, leaving them a little bit lumpy; stir in the hot cream.
- Mix in the Fontina, prosciutto, and eggs and stir well to combine. Taste and add salt if you need to-you probably will.
- Form the potato mixture into cakes about 2 1/2 inches wide and 3/4 to 1 inch thick. Put them on a baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Coat a large nonstick sauté pan with olive oil and bring to high heat. Working in batches, brown the cakes on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Place the browned cakes on a baking sheet and transfer them to the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until heated through.
- These lovely cakes need to chill for at least an hour before cooking so if you want to really streamline the operation, make the cakes ahead (even the day before) and stick them in the fridge until you're ready to eat.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make for the best potato cakes. Look for potatoes that are firm and free of blemishes, and use a good quality prosciutto that is not too salty.
- Grate the potatoes finely. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming too mushy.
- Squeeze out the excess moisture from the potatoes. This will help to prevent the potato cakes from becoming greasy.
- Use a nonstick skillet or griddle. This will help to prevent the potato cakes from sticking and burning.
- Cook the potato cakes over medium heat. This will help them to cook through without burning.
- Serve the potato cakes immediately. They are best when they are hot and crispy.
