Layered Potato And Apple Bake Recipes

SIMPLY ROASTED APPLES & POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Slice your potatoes in half. Slice again so each potato is in four pieces. If your potato is fairly large you may need to cut some of them one more time. You want your potato pieces to be about the same size as the apple slices.
• Add the potato pieces to a large ziplock bag or large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, basil, rosemary, salt, ground mustard, garlic powder, and pepper. If using a bag, squeeze out excess air, seal, and shake until potato pieces are coated. If using a bowl, stir and flip potato pieces until they're coated.
• Spread coated potatoes on a 12 x 17 baking sheet.
• Place in the oven and bake for 5 minutes. (We are not fully cooking the potatoes at this point.)
• Slice apples into quarters, removing and discarding the core and seeds.
• Remove pan from oven. Add sliced apples. Use spatula to flip the potatoes and move the apples around so they too are coated with oil. Spread everything in a single layer.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are done. They should give a little when you press them.
• Remove from the oven and serve immediately.

• In a 10-by-10-by-2-inch casserole, arrange some of the potatoes in an even layer, drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the cream and season with salt and pepper. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, cream and salt and pepper to form 11 layers. Press down on the layers to totally submerge them in the cream.
• Cover and bake for 30 minutes; remove the cover and continue baking until the cream has been absorbed, the potatoes are cooked through and the top is browned, 30 to 45 minutes longer. Evenly distribute the Caramelized Shallots and Fried Sage Leaves over the top.
• Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and sugar and slowly cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized, about 40 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Add the sage leaves in batches and fry for a few seconds until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels and season with salt.
• Cover and refrigerate the flavored oil to save for sauteing fish, chicken or pork chops.

CRISPY LAYERED THYME POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Slice the peeled potatoes as finely as possible on a mandolin, with the fine slicing blade of a food processor, or with a very sharp knife. (The more finely you slice them, the quicker and more evenly they will cook.)
• Pat the potatoes dry with a clean tea towel and tip into a large bowl. Pour over the melted butter, sprinkle over the thyme and some salt (preferably sea salt or rock salt), and toss until each slice is coated in butter.
• In a roasting tin, measuring about 20 x 20cm, assemble the potato slices vertically, tightly packed together like a deck of cards, until the dish is full and you've used all the potatoes. Sprinkle with a little more salt and place in the oven for 45-50 mins until crisp and cooked. Use a skewer or small sharp knife to check that the potatoes are completely soft and cooked in the centre. Serve from the tin alongside the lamb.
