Jamie’s Lyonnaise Potato Cake
By Yankee Magazine|Dec 28 2007|
Ingredients
9 potatoes, peeled and thickly sliced
Olive oil
2 onions, sliced
Small handful thyme leaves
4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees/Gas 6).
Bring a large pan of water to the boil, add the potatoes, and parboil
them for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside. Heat some olive oil in a
pan and fry the onions gently with the thyme leaves until meltingly
soft. Add the balsamic vinegar and remove from heat. Remove onions to a
plate.
Using the same pan (no need to wash it), lay half the potatoes in the
bottom and season with salt and pepper. Follow with the onions in 1
layer, seasoning again, then the rest of the potatoes. Bake in the
preheated oven for about 45 minutes.
Yield: 4 servings
