This delicious baked potato tart is a true delight for the palate and the eyes!!!!!!!
When we eat it we notice two different textures: the crispier one because it stayed out of the pan and the softer, more delicate one flavored with a mix of finely chopped shallot and tiny thyme leaves. I must say it is a very, very good side dish that pairs well with meat and fish dishes.
My advice is to slice all the potatoes you need to fill your pan with a mandoline slicer and then try to shape and ripple the slices AFTER.
Honestly I started placing one sliced potato at a time but then they fell and the movement changed, so it is better to have all the slices ready and then …CREATE!
I give you general guidance for this baked potato tart because some liquid forms while baking and you need to adjust the recipe as the cooking time extends (meaning that at a certain point I removed some of the little broth that had formed since the potatoes were already cooked).
I flavored it with thyme and chopped shallot but we can vary … maybe add paprika or chili if you like spicier preparations, use a mix of rosemary and garlic for a stronger-flavored side dish and as always I leave to you any addition or removal that will make the dish suitable for your personal tastes!
In this house roast potatoes especially for my son Andrea are the best thing ever and I also suggest …

Preparation Recipe Baked Potato Tart
For the baked potato tart recipe I start by washing and peeling the potatoes.
Not being able to cut them paper-thin with a knife I use a mandoline and place all the slices in a bowl.
I quickly rinse them under running water and pat them dry with a clean towel or kitchen paper.
In a pan I put the ready-made vegetable broth with plenty of dried thyme leaves and the finely chopped shallot.
I let it simmer for 3-4 minutes, adjusting salt and pepper.
I pour this seasoned hot broth over the waves of raw potato slices and then bake at 356°F for about 40 minutes.
As I said before, after about half an hour I took the pan out of the oven and tested the doneness with a skewer; since there was, in my opinion, too much liquid, I removed a few tablespoons, then put the baked potato tart back in the oven for the final minutes.
If you want a more pronounced crust change the oven setting to BROIL and brown for the very last minutes.
I remove it from the oven, let it cool for 10 minutes and serve.
THE BAKED POTATO TART is a side dish that pairs well with fish and meat and goes wonderfully with roast chicken!
Enjoy your meal!
