Product Information

Pre Heat your oven to 180 degrees C and grease a large rectangle baking dish (a large lasagne dish is perfect!).

You can use a mandolin or the slicer attachment on your food processor to cut the potatoes. Or use a sharp knife (and a lot of patience) to cut them by hand. SUCH A CLASSY DISH! You can sound all fancy when you tell your guests (or family!) this is a traditional French dish called boulangere potatoes. You’ll need a medium baking dish to cook the Potato Bake in. I use a pyrex casserole dish with a lid. Whilst rosemary is the traditional herb to use, thyme, sage or oregano are also wonderful additions. In a large saute pan heat the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter with 2 tablespoons of olive oil Saute your sliced onions for 5 minutes.In rural areas where people did not have their own ovens, the dish was traditionally cooked by bakers. But to get it right, keep my top tips in mind (and, ideally, read through this entire post before you get to the recipe card):

Allrounder or floury potatoesare perfect for this Pommes Boulangere dish. The potato & onion bake would slip and slide apart when you serve if you use waxy potatoes. Spread a layer on sauteed onion over the potatoes and sprinkle with rosemary, salt and pepper. Continue layering in this way, ending with a layer of potatoes. You want a good allrounder potato for this dish. Too waxy and the potato bake will slip and slide apart when you serve. Too floury and the potatoes will disintegrate whilst cooked. Potatoes: The best potatoes for the perfect pommes boulangere are King Edwards, Yukon Gold, Russet, Maris Piper and Desiree potatoes.

Our multi-purpose efficiency oven has numerous uses.

As Australia Day approaches next week, I’m planning some side dishes to have with our family BBQ at home and I’ll be making this ‘Creamy Potato Bake’ on the day. I use a Mandolin Slicer as I can’t slice potatoes consistently, which can then result in undercooked potato in your bake. If you have one with a safety guard, you can get the kids to help. Mine love helping slice the potatoes. Cheese– Shredded cheddar cheese (known as tasty cheese in Australia) is the best choice. It has a lovely sharp flavour and turns the topping that magic golden brown colour you know and love on potato bake! If you’re feeling extra naughty, throw in a handful of parmesan cheese. After letting rest for a short while, either serve immediately, cool and reheat later, or cool and freeze for another day. Helen’s top tips

Who can resist a really great potato bake? What is it about yummy food made out of potatoes that we just can’t say no to!!! This No-Fail Creamy Potato Bake recipe is super simple and you won’t serve up hard, uncooked potatoes. Whilst rosemary is the traditional herb to use, thyme, sage or oregano are also wonderful additions Think of this as a cream free scalloped potatoes or a cheese free au gratin. But being lighter doesn't mean these are any less impressive or any less delicious. The French name for Potato Boulangere - Pommes Boulangere translates to "potatoes from the bakers," which refers to the origins of the dish. However, I’ve discovered through online comments that, unbeknownst to us professionals, there are people up and down the country who like their mash lumpy. This under-represented section of the population actively chooses to resist fully mashing their spuds, preferring to give them more of a casual crush instead.Durable and portable, our premium potato baker perfectly blends time-tested design with top-of-the-line 304 stainless steel.

Potato Bake is best eaten the day it is made, but can be refrigerated for up to two days after cooking. With this title, however, comes great responsibility. So, it’s not without a significant amount of research and experimentation – not to mention months of strenuous, in-depth potato eating – that I’m about to tell you the best way to make mashed potato, to get it perfectly silky and smooth and raise the bar for this most worthy side dish. Once you have sliced your potatoes, brush an oven-safe baking dish (approximately 21 cm / 8.25" diameter) with soft butter and start building the boulangere potatoes.

You may not need all of the broth, you want to pour it on until it comes to just below the last layer of potatoes. this allows the top to crisp up nicely.
