Potato Galette

Delicious side dish. Easy to prepare and takes no time to bake. The recipe is extremely versatile. You can add just about anything that you would like with a potato such as may-be some bacon, cheddar or even some ground sausage.  We enjoyed this simple side with our B.B.Q chicken breasts (recipe on Blog).

Ingredients:
4 good-sized baking or yukon gold potatoes
4 Tbsp butter (melted)
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup romano cheese
1 small chopped shallot

Method:
Pre-heat your oven to 425°. Spray a 10-inch pie plate or shallow tart pan with non-stick cooking spray. Place your butter and shallots in a glass dish and microwave it for a few seconds until melted. Slice your potatoes into very thin slices, and distribute them in the bottom of your pie plate in a spiral fashion, 2 layers deep. Dust with salt, pepper and sprinkle of some of the cheese. Brush with melted butter and shallot mixture, and repeat the process until you've used all your potatoes. Press down a bit. Be sure to cover your top layer completely with the melted butter so it browns up nicely in the oven. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, keeping an eye on the degree of browning. When done, the potatoes will shrink away from the sides of the dish slightly and be fork-tender in the middle. Allow to cool slightly. Run a sharp knife around the edges and carefully flip the galette upside down on a serving platter and cut into wedges for serving.
