Potato And Tomato Galettes Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a pizza stone or baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix the ricotta, oregano and red paper flakes in a small bowl. Add a small pinch of salt and pepper.
• Unroll the pie crust onto the prepared pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread the ricotta mixture in the center of the dough, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border. Top with the mozzarella. Lay the tomato slices on top of the mozzarella, overlapping them if necessary. Fold the edge of the dough over the filling. Beat the egg in a small bowl with 1 teaspoon water. Brush the dough with the egg wash.
• Bake until the crust is golden brown and shiny, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with basil.

Steps:

• Warm the canola oil and butter in large saute pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook slowly, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms release their juices. Continue cooking until all their moisture evaporates.
• Add the shallots and cook for 3 minutes. Strip the leaves from the thyme sprigs and add to the pan; discard the stems. Season with the salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• Place the potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss until well coated.
• Place 2 medium nonstick saute pans over medium heat. Place 1 potato slice in the center of each pan. Use one-quarter of the potatoes per pan, carefully form circles of slightly overlapping potato slices around the center slices, letting them fall slightly over the edge of the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 4 minutes. If any gaps form between the slices, patch with slices cut to fit the gap.
• Place 1/4 of the mushroom mixture in the center of each galette and evenly spread it out to cover the potatoes. As the potatoes become soft and flexible, begin folding them inward so that they slightly enclose the mushrooms and form a perfect disk-shaped galette. Cook for 25 minutes, turning occasionally so that the potatoes do not burn or become to brown.
• Serve once the galette is crisp and holds its shape, warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Remove the stem cores of the tomatoes and slice into 3/8-inch thick slices.
• Place in a single layer on cookie sheets and season with salt. Cover with a clean tea towel and set them aside.
• Fry the bacon slices until just crisp and drain on paper towels; set aside.
• Drain the juices that have collected around the tomatoes, using you fingers to press out any large pockets of seeds and gel.
• Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
• Remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and if you have not put it on a baking sheet lined with parchment, do so now.
• Arrange the cheese slices over the surface of the tart, leaving a 2-inch margin around the edges.
• If more juices have formed around the tomatoes, drain them again.
• Set the tomatoes on top of the cheese in concentric circles that overlap slightly. (Basically, make it look pretty.).
• Season the tomatoes lightly with kosher salt and generously with black pepper from a mill.
• Scatter the chives over the top of the tomatoes.
• Arrange the bacon strips on top.
• Gently fold the edges of the tart up and over the tomatoes, pleating the edges as you fold them. (Pinch and fold, pinch and fold).
• Mix the egg white and Tbs of water in a small dish.
• Using a pastry brush, brush the edge of the tart lightly with the egg wash and sprinkle it with sea salt.
• Bake until the pastry is golden brown and the tomatoes are soft and fragrant, about 35-40 minute.
• Transfer to a rack to cool slightly.
• Cut into wedges and serve warm.

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.

Steps:

• Place tomatoes on a double layer of paper towels; sprinkle with salt. Cover with additional paper towels. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together pesto and mayonnaise. Preheat oven to 375°. On a floured sheet of parchment, roll dough into a 12-in. circle. Transfer to a baking sheet or pizza stone., Spread pesto mixture over crust to within 2 in. of edge; top with ¼ cup feta. Arrange tomato slices over feta; arrange cherry tomatoes on top, cut sides up. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup feta, Italian seasoning and pepper. Fold crust edge over filling, pleating as you go and leaving center uncovered. In a small bowl, whisk egg and water; brush edge of crust with egg wash and sprinkle with Parmesan. , Bake until crust is golden brown, 35-40 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before slicing. If desired, top with basil before serving.

• Combine flour, cornmeal, salt, and frozen butter in a food processor. Pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add vinegar and ice water and pulse again until mixture comes together in clumps, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Wrap dough up in plastic wrap and shape into a disc. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 1 hour.
• Combine goat cheese, egg yolk, kosher salt, pepper, cayenne, and basil in a bowl. Mix using a spatula until smooth and soft.
• Place dough on a lightly floured work surface and sprinkle top with flour. Roll out into 1/8-inch-thick circle, about 13 inches in diameter. Roll dough over the rolling pin and transfer onto a 12-inch pizza pan; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Mix tomatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and Dijon mustard together in a bowl.
• Drop spoonfuls of the cheese mixture onto the dough and spread evenly, leaving about 1 1/2-inch space on the sides. Place tomato mixture on top of cheese using a slotted spoon. Fold excess dough up and over tomatoes, creating a pleat every 3 inches or so by gently pressing and folding.
• Combine beaten egg and water in a small bowl; brush over crust. Sprinkle Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese over galette.
• Place a foil-lined pan on the rack under galette to catch any possible drips. Bake in the preheated oven until well browned on bottom and top, 30 to 35 minutes.

• Combine goat cheese, Parmesan cheese, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl; stir with a fork until blended.
• Gently flatten each puff pastry sheet with a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into four squares. Lightly cut a border about 1/4-inch from the edges of each square using a sharp knife, not going all the way through the dough.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Arrange puff pastry squares on a baking sheet; spread goat cheese mixture on each square. Top each square with onion mixture. Chill in refrigerator for 5 to 10 minutes.
