Raclette With Potato Rounds Recipes

BAKED RACLETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with water by one inch, add 1 tablespoon salt, and bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when tested with a wooden skewer. Drain and cover with a kitchen towel to steam for 5 minutes. Cut in half lengthwise and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat in a large (12-inch) sauté pan, add the chorizo, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, turning often, until browned. Drain all but a tablespoon of the fat from the pan, add the potatoes, and toss to combine with the chorizo and fat. Off the heat, stir in the wine, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Divide the sausage and potatoes among four gratin dishes. Arrange the raclette in one layer over the potatoes and chorizo. Distribute the thyme sprigs on top. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is hot and bubbly.
• Remove the gratins from the oven, place the cornichons on top, and serve hot with the bread and mustard.

RACLETTE POTATO SKINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Bake the potatoes and prepare the skins as directed.
• Brush the potato skins on both sides with the melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Arrange skin-side up on the baking sheet. Bake until crisp, about 15 minutes. Flip the potato skins and top with the ham, cheese and shallot. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 more minutes. Top with cornichons and chives.
