Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb gratin dauphinois
  • 1 medium unsalted butter
  • 1 lb shallot
  • a pinch fresh thyme
  • 4 oz dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp cracked black pepper
  • to taste good finishing oil
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the gratin dauphinois dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the gratin dauphinois, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
Keep cooking
