ANNA POTATOES
PREPARATION
Serves: 4
Prep. time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 60 minutes
Very crispy potatoes on top and very melting on the inside…
INGREDIENTS
- 500 grams potatoes (agata for example)
- 30 grams butter
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 or 2 pinches Guérande Salt
- 1 or 2 pinches Freshly ground pepper 5-peppercorn mix
- 4 small grape tomatoes
METHOD
Place your grape tomatoes in an ovenproof dish. Pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the top and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 180°C (fan assisted).
Meanwhile, we're going to make the Anna potatoes.
Peel the potatoes and keep them in a bowl of cold water to prevent them from turning black.
Slice the potatoes with a mandolin into 3 mm thick slices.
Put the potatoes together in a large container, without washing them, and season them with salt and freshly ground pepper. Mix well.
Melt the butter and remaining oil in a non-stick pan.
Arrange the potato slices in the bottom of the pan in a rosette.
Do not hesitate to make 2 or 3 layers.
Leave to cook over a moderate heat. The potatoes should colour slowly and stick together.
When the underside is golden brown, place a plate in the pan to hold it together and tip the pan to remove the excess melted butter and oil. Set it aside. This will be needed to cook the other side.
Place a sheet of greaseproof paper on top of the potatoes and then a plate.
Turn the whole thing over with a sharp blow to flip the potato cake.
Remove the pan.
The potato cake is intact, but still very fragile.
Carefully slide it into the pan on the other side and add the melted butter and olive oil mixture.
Cook the other side for a few minutes over moderate heat. Keep warm.
Serve the Anna apples with the grape tomatoes.

The gratin dauphinois or potato gratin à la dauphinoise is a traditional recipe of French cuisine, of Dauphinoise origin, based on potatoes and, originally, gratinated milk or cream. For a vegetarian dish, simply replace the milk with soy milk or soy cream from Alpro.

- 4 tbsp olive oil,
- 1 tsp dairy-free soy butter,
- 275 ml dairy-free single cream,
- 1/2 turnip,
- 1 tbsp grated nutmeg, to taste,
- salt and freshly ground black pepper; to taste
METHOD
Peel, wash and mop the yellow-fleshed potatoes. Cut them into thin slices.
Lightly rub garlic and a turnip into a casserole dish, then butter it generously. Arrange the thin potato slices in thick layers, salted and peppered. Then sprinkle with nutmeg. Pour over the liquid soy cream and a few shells of butter and cook over a low heat for 1h30, pushing the heat towards the end to brown the surface.
As I cooked this gratin for a family meal, I had to make 2 dishes... usually, everyone gets a second portion!!!!!
Enjoy with a good green salad.
