Potato Galette

Grated russet potatoes are completely transformed in this recipe for potato galette. It's almost like a giant hash brown cake—crispy edges and all!

Ingreadient

  • 2 lb. russet potatoes
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tsp. chopped thyme, plus more for garnish
  • 2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 3/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 7 Tbsp. canola oil, divided
  • Flaky sea salt, for garnish

Direction

  1. Peel the potatoes and shred on the large holes of a box grater. Place the shredded potatoes in a colander and rinse under cold water, stirring often, until the water runs clear, about 1 minute. Drain well. Wrap the potatoes in a clean dish towel and squeeze firmly to wring out as much moisture as possible.
  2. Toss together the potatoes, red onion, thyme, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium, heat 5 tablespoons of the oil. Add potato mixture to the skillet and spread into an even layer. Using the back of a spatula, firmly press to compact the potatoes. Cook until the bottom and sides are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  4. Carefully slide the galette, browned side down, onto a baking sheet. Invert the skillet on top of the galette and flip the sheet so that the galette is now browned side up in the skillet. 
  5. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of the oil around the edges of the skillet. Cook until golden brown on the bottom, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer galette to a cutting board. Cut into wedges. Garnish with flaky sea salt and thyme.
