Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1 cup (shredded) Gruyère cheese
- 0.25 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup (cold, cubed) Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Ice water
- 0.25 cup Sour cream
- 1 unit Egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon (chopped) Fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.25 teaspoon (freshly ground) Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, combine the all-purpose flour and kosher salt. Add the cold, cubed butter, and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Mix the sour cream, ice water, and egg yolk in a small bowl. Add this to the food processor and pulse until the dough starts coming together. Do not overwork the dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gather it into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
While the dough chills, thinly slice the Yukon Gold potatoes (about 1/8-inch thick) and toss them in a bowl with olive oil, thyme, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle half of the grated Gruyère cheese over the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges.
Arrange the potato slices in overlapping layers over the cheese. Sprinkle with the remaining Gruyère and the grated Parmesan cheese.
Gently fold the edges of the dough over the potatoes, pleating as you go to create a rustic crust.
Brush the crust with heavy cream for a golden finish.
Bake the galette for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the potatoes are tender.
Allow the galette to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
