Potato Tatin With Brie & Prosciutto
Description
This sophisticated Potato Tatin reimagines the classic French upside-down tart with hearty, savory ingredients. Thinly sliced potatoes are slowly cooked in butter, white wine, and cream until tender and infused with aromatic shallots and garlic. The dish is layered with salty prosciutto and rich, creamy Brie cheese, then topped with flaky puff pastry. Baked until golden brown, it offers a stunning contrast of textures: crisp pastry, tender potatoes, and gooey cheese. It serves beautifully as an impressive appetizer for dinner parties or a unique side dish for holiday meals. The combination of earthy potatoes and luxurious dairy creates a comforting yet elegant bite that guests will love.Ingredients
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 450ðF (230ðC). Prepare a bouquet garni with rosemary and thyme sprigs.
-
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped shallots and cook until softened and translucent.
-
Pour in white wine and simmer until reduced by half, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
-
Stir in cream, thin potato slices, halved garlic cloves, bouquet garni, grated nutmeg, salt, and freshly ground pepper.
-
Cook the potato mixture for about 5 minutes until slightly tender but still firm, then remove from heat.
-
Arrange several potato slices in the bottom of six 3-inch tart molds in an overlapping circular pattern.
-
Layer paper-thin prosciutto slices over the potatoes, followed by slices of Brie cheese.
-
Top the cheese with remaining potato slices to fill the molds.
-
Cut six 3-inch circles from puff pastry and place one on top of each mold, pressing edges down gently.
-
Bake for 20-25 minutes until pastry is golden brown and puffed, and potatoes are tender when pierced.
-
Let cool for 2 minutes, then carefully invert each tart onto a serving plate. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
