Simple Potato and Rosemary Focaccia image

This was my first attempt at focaccia, several years ago, and it worked out well. I've made it several times since then. Having come across it again whilst browsing my cookbooks, I thought that you might like to try it! After it is baked , although it's great just as it is, try topping it with some fresh baby spinach or rocket (arugula) leaves. and shavings of Parmesan cheese. Be sure to slice the potatoes for the topping very thinly, they will cook on top of the focaccia. From : The Vegetarian Kitchen: Susan Gardner

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup mashed potatoes
1 cup strong white bread flour, sifted
1 (1/4 ounce) packet easyblend yeast
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
200 ml warm water

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas Mark 4.
  • Lightly oil a large baking tray.
  • Place the dough in the middle, and work it out to the edges to form a square or rectangle.
  • Top the dough with the uncooked potato slices and the rosemary, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with the remaining oil.
  • Bake for 50 minutes, covering if the focaccia is getting too brown.

I love the crispy crust on this focaccia. It's the perfect contrast to the soft and fluffy interior.

This focaccia is a great way to use up leftover potatoes. I always have a few leftover potatoes after making mashed potatoes or potato salad, and this is a great way to use them up.

I wasn't sure how the potato and rosemary would taste together, but I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors work really well together.
