Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 small Shallot
- 1 tablespoon Flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and grate them into a large bowl using the coarse side of a box grater.
Wrap the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
Finely mince the shallot and garlic. Then, chop the parsley and set aside.
In the bowl with the shredded potatoes, add minced shallot, garlic, thyme, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly to evenly combine.
Heat a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Once the butter has melted and is lightly sizzling, spread half the potato mixture evenly across the pan, pressing it down gently with a spatula to form a compact layer.
Cook the galette undisturbed for 8-10 minutes, or until the bottom is golden and crisp.
Carefully flip the galette. You can slide it onto a plate, cover it with the skillet, and invert, then slide it back into the skillet. Add 1 more tablespoon of butter around the edges.
Cook the second side for another 8-10 minutes or until crispy and golden.
Repeat the process with the remaining potato mixture, adding additional butter and olive oil as needed.
Once both galettes are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate, cut into wedges, and serve immediately.
