Kale and Potato Gratin image

From the local paper. Warm comfort food. I used red potatoes and they turned out well. I adjusted the recipe a little.

Categories     Potato

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb kale
1 1/4 lbs potatoes
2 small onions
2 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces
1 teaspoon minced tarragon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Butter a 2-quart shallow baking dish.
  • Wash, derib and coarsely chop the kale.
  • Place in a pot with a little bit of water and steam until almost tender, 5 minutes or so. Check to make sure it's not burning.
  • Peel and cut potatoes and onions into 1/8-inch thick rounds.
  • If desired, saute onions until lightly browned. It gives more flavor, I think.
  • Drain kale and let stand until cool enough to handle. Press out excess water.
  • Build up alternating layers of potatoes, onions and kale (two layers each) in baking dish, beginning and ending with potatoes and dotting each onion layer with butter, minced tarragon, salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  • Pour half-and-half over top, cover and bake in oven until potatoes are tender and almost all liquid is absorbed, 30-45 minutes.
  • Place under broiler, if desired, to brown the top.

I'm not a big fan of kale, but this gratin was surprisingly good. The kale was cooked perfectly and the flavors were well-balanced.

This gratin was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less cheese.

I'm not a fan of gratins, but this one was really good. The kale and potatoes were cooked perfectly, and the cheese was melted and bubbly.

Overall, this was a good dish. It was easy to make and the flavors were good. I would definitely make it again, but I would make a few changes to the recipe.

The gratin was a bit dry. I think I would have added more milk or cream to make it creamier.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if it had more garlic and herbs.

This gratin was delicious! The kale added a nice touch of bitterness that balanced out the richness of the potatoes and cheese. I would definitely recommend this dish to anyone looking for a hearty and flavorful side dish.
