Crispy and elegant, these potato cakes make a wonderful side for steaks or chops. Or, serve them as a first course topped with smoked fish and lemon juice.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb  (500 g)  baking (russet) potatoes (about 2 potatoes), peeled
  • 1 tbsp  (15 mL)  olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp  (1 mL)  each salt and black pepper
  • 1/3 cup  (75 mL)  sour cream
  • 4 tsp  (20 mL)  finely chopped chives

Preparation

Using mandoline or sharp knife, cut potatoes crosswise into 1/8-inch/3 mm thick slices. Toss with oil and half of the salt and pepper.

On parchment paper-lined baking sheets, arrange overlapping potato slices into five 5-inch/12 cm circles.

Bake in 400°F/200°C oven until golden and crisp, about 35 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining salt and pepper. Top each galette with dollop of sour cream; sprinkle with chives.

Makes 5 servings.
