Pommes Anna with Parmesan

Fine raw potato slices layered with butter, Parmesan and seasoning, browned in a pan and finished in the oven.

Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Peel, wash and drain the four potatoes. Slice them as finely and evenly as practical with a slicer or sharp knife. Grate the Parmesan and mix the measured salt with the estimated white pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Heat the measured one ounce of butter in a small oven-safe frying pan, then remove the pan from the heat. Cover the base with a thin potato layer. Sprinkle lightly with part of the seasoning and Parmesan; add a few additional small butter bits, for which the book gives no amount. Repeat until all potatoes, cheese and seasoning are used, adding small butter bits between layers without asserting a measured total.

  3. Step 3

    Cover and cook over moderate heat for the printed five minutes. Turn the layered potatoes carefully with a broad turner and cook for the printed three further minutes. Transfer the oven-safe pan to a preheated hot oven; about 200°C is an editorial setting. Bake for the printed ten minutes as a guide, continuing if the centre slices are not tender.

  4. Step 4

    Turn the layered potatoes onto a clean warm dish and serve hot, showing their browned face and distinct thin layers.
