Potato Onion And Tomato Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Layer potato, tomato& onion in a greased, ovenproof baking dish, finishing with a potato layer.
• Dot each layer with pieces of butter and season with salt& pepper to taste.
• Combine milk, cream& stock and pour over potato mixture.
• Top with cheese.
• Dot with any remaining butter.
• Bake in preheated 350F oven for 1 hour or until potato is tender& golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Dribble 1 tablespoon of olive oil into a 2-quart rectangular or 14-inch-by-8-inch-by 2-inch oval baking dish and scatter 1/4 of the minced garlic over the bottom of the pan.
• Arrange the vegetables in layers, starting with the potatoes and peppers and finishing with the tomatoes and onion.
• Sprinkle salt, freshly ground pepper, and oregano and about 1/4 of the garlic between each layer.
• Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the surface and bake for 1 1/2 hours or until fork-tender.
• Note: The easiest way to slice the potatoes is with a mandoline. Remember that the thicker the potato slices, the longer it will take to bake.
• Note2: As I have wonderful dried oregano from Greece, I use that as it is better than what I can get fresh.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large saute pan or Dutch oven over high heat for 2 minutes. Swirl in 3 tablespoons olive oil, and then add the onions, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Cook 6 minutes, stirring often, and then turn the heat down to medium. Add the butter, and cook 15 minutes, stirring and scraping with a wooden spoon, until the onions start to caramelize. Turn the heat down to low and continue cooking for about 10 minutes, stirring often, until the onions are a deep golden brown. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
• Use a mandoline to slice the potatoes into 1/8-inch-thick rounds. Toss them with the cream, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper.
• Cut the tomatoes into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange them on a plate and season with 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper.
• Place half the caramelized onions in an even layer in a 9-by-9-inch (or equivalent) gratin or baking dish. Arrange one layer of alternating potatoes and tomatoes on top of the onion layer. Layer a couple of slices of cheese and scatter some olives over the cheese. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the cream from the potatoes and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with 1 teaspoon salt, a healthy pinch of pepper, 1/2 teaspoon thyme and half the basil.
• Scatter the rest of the caramelized onions over the potatoes and tomatoes. Arrange another layer of potatoes, tomatoes and cheese on top; make this layer pretty, because it will be the top of your gratin. Pour the remaining cream from the potatoes and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over the potatoes and tomatoes. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, a pinch of pepper, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon thyme, olives and basil. Press the vegetables down with your fingers. The cream and oil will come up through the layers and coat the vegetables evenly.
• Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake until the potatoes are tender when pierced, about 2 hours. Remove the gratin from the oven and uncover it, being careful of the steam.
• Turn the oven up to 450 degrees F and return the gratin, uncovered, to the oven. Cook until the juices have thickened and the top is nice and golden brown (as in "gratineed"), another 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat oil and butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions, season with salt and pepper and cook until caramelized, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the sage. Let cool slightly.
• Make a layer of potato slices in a 10 by 10 by 2-inch casserole, season to taste with salt and pepper, spread 1/12 of the onion mixture over the potatoes and coat with 2 tablespoons of the cream. Repeat each step to yield 12 layers. Press down gently on the layers, place the dish on a sheet pan and bake, covered for 25 minutes. Remove cover and bake for another 20 to 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and golden brown on top. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Heat half the oil in a pan and gently soften the onions and garlic for 15-20 mins until really soft and sticky but not browned. Put the onions, tomatoes (halve the large ones), herbs, sugar and breadcrumbs in a baking dish, season well and toss together.
• Drizzle with the remaining oil, scatter with a few more herb sprigs and bake for 1 hr until going golden on top and the tomatoes are juicy.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack in upper third. Coat a 9-by-13-inch gratin dish with 1 teaspoon oil, and sprinkle with garlic. Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, slice potatoes and zucchini as thinly as possible into rounds. Arrange potatoes, zucchini, and tomatoes in overlapping layers around prepared dish, and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Drizzle with remaining 4 teaspoons oil, and sprinkle with thyme and cheese.
• Cover with foil; bake until potatoes are tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove foil; continue baking until top is golden brown, about 25 minutes more. Remove from oven; and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Rub bottom of 16x10 gratin pan with split garlic clove.
• Arrange potato slices in bottom of pan.
• Season with salt, pepper, some of the thyme and chopped garlic.
• Add a layer of onions and seasoning.
• Add a layer of tomatoes and seasoning on top.
• Drizzle with wine and oil.
• Trim the thicker portions of fat from the leg of lamb.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Place lamb on a sturdy cake rake directly on top of gratin pan.
• Roast, uncovered, for about 1 hour and 15 minutes for rare lamb (1 hour and 45 minutes for well-done); turning lamb every 15 minutes, basting with liquid from gratin pan.
• Remove from oven and allow to sit for 20 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Peel and slice the potatoes 1/8-inch to 1/16-inch thick (6 cups).
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• Dribble 1 tablespoon olive oil into a 2-quart rectangular or oval baking dish 14 x 8 x 2 and scatter 1/4 of the minced garlic over the bottom of the pan.
• Arrange the vegetables in layers, starting with potatoes and peppers, finishing with tomatoes and onion.
• Sprinkle with salt, freshly ground pepper, garlic, and oregano between each layer.
• Pour the remaining olive oil over the surface and bake in the oven for 1 1/2 hours, or until fork tender.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Generously grease a large, deep, ovenproof dish. Strip the leaves from 3 of the thyme sprigs. Mix the gruyère with all but 2 tbsp of the grated parmesan, then mix the double cream with the stock.
• Start layering up the sliced potatoes with sprinklings of the shallots, garlic, thyme leaves, cheese and most of the walnuts, plus plenty of seasoning. Drizzle a little of the cream mixture over each layer too. When you've layered in half of those ingredients, top with half of the tomatoes. Continue layering the rest of the ingredients, finishing with the last of the cream. Top with the remaining tomatoes, then sprinkle over the breadcrumbs, the remaining parmesan and walnuts, and enough thyme to look pretty. Add a few more knobs of butter, then cover with foil.
• Bake the gratin for 1 hr 15 mins, then remove the foil and bake for a further 40 mins until golden and crispy on top, and a knife poked into the centre of the potatoes slides in easily. Leave to rest for 10-15 mins, then serve.

Steps:

• Bring pot of water to boil. Add tomatoes and blanch 10 seconds. Drain tomatoes. Peel, core and slice tomatoes. (Can be made 6 hours ahead; cover and chill).
• Preheat oven to 400°F
• Arrange half the potatoes in a shallow baking dish (15 cup capacity). Season with salt and pepper. Top with half the onions and half the tomatoes. Sprinkle with half the garlic and half the thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat layering with remaining potatoes, onions, tomatoes, garlic and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Pour wine and olive oil over. Bake until potatoes are tender and almost all the liquid evaporates, about 90 minutes.
• Melt butter in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add breadcrumbs and saute until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over gratin. Cool 10 minutes and serve.

Steps:

• Coat bottom and sides of a large oval glass or ceramic gratin dish with
• olive oil.
• Arrange a layer of 1/2 of potatoes in the dish.
• Top with 1/2 of onions, then 1/2 of tomatoes.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Drizzle with 1/4 cup olive oil.
• Sprinkle with 1/2 of cheese.
• Repeat process to use remaining ingredients.
• Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven about 1 1/4 hours or until golden
• and bubbly.
• Serve hot with fish or meat.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees and place a rack at the middle level. In a large saucepan, combine onions and 2 tablespoons olive oil and stir to coat over low heat. Sprinkle lightly with salt. At a gentle simmer, cook uncovered until onions are softened and lightly golden, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often. Do not brown; lower the heat if necessary. When done, fold in tomatoes just until heated through. Set aside.
• In a small food processor or a mortar, add the anchovies - anywhere from 6 to 12 fillets, depending on their size and your taste. Add garlic, herbs and a dozen grinds of pepper. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil (or use the oil from the anchovy can, if you like). Crush or pulse together into a chunky paste, thinning with oil as needed to make a loose, fluid mixture.
• In a medium-size baking dish, spread a quarter of the onion-tomato mixture. On top, arrange half the potato slices, then half the anchovy mixture. Add half the remaining onion-tomato mixture. Build one more layer with remaining potato slices, anchovy mixture and onion-tomato mixture. Sprinkle cheese on top and drizzle with olive oil.
• If the dish is very full, place on a baking sheet. Transfer to oven and bake, uncovered, until potatoes are tender and have absorbed all of the juices in the bottom of the dish, 40 to 50 minutes. Test by tasting a bit of potato; it should be soft all the way through, with no raw taste. If the top is browning too fast, cover very loosely with a sheet of foil. If the top is not brown enough when the potatoes are cooked, broil briefly until deliciously glazed.
• Serve gratin hot or warm. Can be cooled and reheated later the same day, but do not refrigerate.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Rub the bottom of a large (16x10x2-inch) gratin dish with the split garlic clove. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer. Season with salt, pepper and some of the thyme and chopped garlic. Layer the sliced onions on top; repeat the seasonings. Layer the tomatoes on top and season with salt, pepper and remaining garlic and thyme. Drizzle the top with the wine and then the oil.
• 2. Trim the thicker portions of fat from the leg of lamb. Season the meat with salt and pepper. Place the lamb on a sturdy cake or oven rack directly on top of the gratin dish.
• 3. Roast, uncovered, for about 1 hour and 15 minutes for rare lamb. (For well-done, roast 30-40 minutes more.) Turn lamb every 15 minutes, basting with liquid from the dish underneath. Remove from the oven and let the lamb sit for 20 minutes before carving.
• 4. To serve, carve the lamb into thin slices and arrange on a serving platter, with the vegetable gratin alongside.
