Tomato Potato Galette Recipes

POTATO AND TOMATO GALETTES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush a baking sheet with oil; set aside. Stir thyme, oil, and salt in a medium bowl. Add potatoes; toss to coat.
• Arrange potatoes on prepared baking sheet, overlapping slices slightly in a spiral to make 4 rounds (about 5 inches in diameter each). Add tomatoes to bowl with remaining oil mixture; turn to coat. Place 2 tomato slices on top of each potato round. Bake until potatoes are tender and edges are beginning to brown, 15 to 22 minutes. Garnish with thyme sprigs.

POTATO GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Heat clarified butter in a 10 1/2-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat until very hot, but not smoking. Place a sprig of thyme in center of skillet. Arrange potatoes in an overlapping spiral to fill pan (be careful, because the fat may spatter). Season with salt and pepper. Brush the bottom of a medium saute pan with clarified butter, and place over potatoes to weigh them down. Cook until golden brown, about 8 minutes.
• Carefully pour off excess butter, if there is any, and reserve. Turn galette out onto a baking sheet. Place another sprig of thyme in center of skillet. Using two spatulas, carefully return galette to skillet, browned side up. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with saute pan; transfer to oven, and bake until second side is brown and potatoes are cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes more. Remove top saute pan 5 minutes before removing skillet from oven. Carefully slide galette onto cutting board. Cut into wedges, and serve immediately.

POTATO GALETTES

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, making sure to keep their round shape, and rinse them under cold water. Using a mandoline, slice one of the potatoes almost paper-thin. (If they are not thin enough, you will have difficulty getting them to adhere to one another; also, do not rinse the slices, as you will remove the starch.) On a work surface, form a circle of overlapping slices about 5 inches in diameter. Continue to make layers of slices, sprinkling them with salt and pepper every couple of layers, until all the slices are used. Make another galette with another potato.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and place 2 small skillets over medium heat. When hot, add 2 tablespoons of the clarified butter to each. Using a large spatula, carefully transfer 1 galette to each skillet. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. (Lower the heat if they brown too quickly.) Turn and cook the other side until the potatoes are golden brown and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes more. Transfer to a small sheet pan lined with paper towels and keep warm in the oven.
• While the first 2 galettes are cooking, prepare the remaining 2 in the same manner. Serve warm.

TOMATO AND FETA GALETTE

Steps:

• Heat butter and oil together in a skillet over medium heat; add onion. Cook and stir until onion is translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper into onion; cook and stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
• Roll out puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place puff pastry on parchment paper. Place baking sheet in the freezer.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Arrange tomato slices on a wire rack placed on top of a baking sheet. Sprinkle salt over tomato slices and set aside to drain tomatoes, about 10 minutes.
• Mix Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, feta cheese, and parsley together in a bowl. Spread 1/2 of this cheese mixture over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Layer the onion mixture over cheese mixture layer.
• Blot tomatoes dry and arrange over onion layer. Sprinkle remaining cheese mixture over tomato layer. Fold the puff pastry border over the edges of the tomatoes and lightly brush egg over pastry.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden and puffed, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle fresh basil over galette and allow to cool for 15 minutes before slicing.

TOMATO POTATO GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees and place the rack in the lowest position.
• Place potatoes in a strainer and press with the back of a spoon to remove all the moisture.
• In a medium bowl, combine the potatoes, salt, pepper, garlic, thyme, vinegar, egg and two tablespoons of the olive oil.
• Pat the mixture into a well-oiled 9-inch pie plate.
• Bake for 30 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and brush the crust with the remaining oil.
• Arrange tomatoes in concentric overlapping circles on the potatoes.
• Sprinkle with cheese and basil.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste and return to the oven.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is light brown and bubbly.
• Remove and allow to cool for five munutes before cutting into wedges.
• Makes approximately six servings.

TOMATO GALETTE

Steps:

• Pulse 2 cups flour and 1 1/4 tsp. kosher salt in a food processor to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining.
• Transfer mixture to a large bowl; drizzle with vinegar and 1/4 cup ice water. Mix with a fork, adding more ice water by the tablespoonful as needed, just until a shaggy dough comes together. Turn out onto a work surface and lightly knead until no dry spots remain (be careful not to overwork). Pat into a disk and wrap in plastic. Chill at least 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Gently toss tomatoes, garlic, and remaining 1 tsp. kosher salt in a large bowl. Let sit 5 minutes (tomatoes will start releasing some liquid). Drain tomato mixture and transfer to paper towels.
• Unwrap dough and roll out on a lightly floured sheet of parchment paper to a 14" round about 1/8" thick. Transfer on parchment to a baking sheet. Scatter cheese over dough, leaving a 1 1/2" border. Arrange tomatoes and garlic over cheese. Bring edges of dough up and over filling, overlapping as needed to create about a 1 1/2" border; brush dough with egg. Sprinkle tomatoes with sea salt and pepper. Chill in freezer 10 minutes.
• Bake galette, rotating once, until crust is golden brown and cooked through, 55-65 minutes. Let cool slightly on baking sheet. Finely grate zest from lemon over galette; sprinkle with chives.
• Do Ahead: Dough can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.
