While not entirely new, here is the potato dish we're serving with our whole roasted tenderloin.
Potato Gratin with Rosemary Crust
This gratin is awesome with prime rib or beef tenderloin. Rosemary is a bossy herb that can take over a dish, so use it sparingly. We call for only 1 Tbsp. to season the entire gratin.
• Yield: Makes 10 servings • Total:2 Hours, 20 Minutes Ingredients • 1 (14.1-oz.) package refrigerated piecrusts • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper • 2 cups (8 oz.) shredded Gruyère cheese, divided • 1 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes • 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes • 1 teaspoon kosher salt • 2/3 cup heavy cream • 1 garlic clove, minced • Garnish: fresh rosemary sprigs Preparation 1. Preheat oven to 450°. Unroll piecrusts on a lightly floured surface. Sprinkle rosemary, pepper, and 1/2 cup cheese over 1 piecrust; top with remaining piecrust. Roll into a 13-inch circle. Press on bottom and up sides of a 9-inch springform pan; fold edges under. Chill. 2. Meanwhile, peel and thinly slice Yukon gold and sweet potatoes. 3. Layer one-third each of Yukon gold potatoes, sweet potatoes, and salt in prepared crust. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup cheese. Repeat layers twice, pressing layers down slightly to fit. 4. Microwave cream and garlic in a 1-cup microwave-safe measuring cup at HIGH 45 seconds; pour over potato layers in pan. Sprinkle with remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Cover pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place on a baking sheet. 5. Bake at 450° for 1 hour. Uncover and bake 25 minutes or until potatoes are done and crust is richly browned. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes. Carefully transfer to a serving plate, and remove sides of pan. If desired, carefully slide gratin off bottom of pan using a long knife or narrow spatula. Garnish, if desired.

leagle--I was just thinking about a potato gratin, as I am probably going to make a prime rib for Christmas Eve. That seems like it would make an awfully large gratin though? And I don't quite understand this part of the directions-- " Press on bottom and up sides of a 9-inch springform pan; fold edges under." Fold edges under WHAT?

OK, thanks. That makes sense. I may try that recipe, as I was looking for a gratin recipe. I made one before that was sweet potato and potato, but pretty sure that one did not have a crust on it.

Carol, I have a wonderful recipe from Charlie Trotter for Potato Parmesan Pavé
4 Russet Potatoes, peeled and sliced very thinly (use a mandolin if you have one) 2 cups heavy (whipping) cream 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (use good quality, it matters here) Salt, Pepper, freshly grated nutmeg
Generously butter a ceramic casserole. In a large bowl, thoroughly coat potatoes with cream. Place 4 overlapping layers of potatoes in casserole. Sprinkle with salt & pepper and a little grated nutmeg. Sprinkle with half of the cheese. Layer remaining potatoes in casserole. Ladle in most of cream remaining in bowl; potatoes should not be swimming though. Sprinkle with Salt & Pepper & Nutmeg. Top with remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hours. Makes 8 servings.

Wow, sounds great! And quite a bit smaller than Leagle's dish! I still may make Leagle's dish, but just make about half the amount..

Kathleen or anyone else--if you're on this afternoon, I think I'm going to make this for dinner, but possibly substitute some gruyere for part of the parmesan. Does that seem like a good idea or no?

OK, forgot to check back here. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Blush.gif" alt="" /> I didn't substitute out any cheese, but used all parmesan (no canned stuff!!). It was very good, but too salty, as I didn't ramp down enough on the added salt. Very rich.. Wouldn't be my regular scalloped type potatoes. Except for special occasions, I might do half heavy cream and half milk or something..

Sorry I didn't check in for awhile. Carol, yes this is a very rich holiday recipe that I only make once a year. Not sure why it was so salty for you. Glad you tried it!

It was too salty because of the added salt I put on it. I salted it like I do my normal scalloped potatoes, which don't have all that cheese on them. My fault. It was very easy to do and the richness for a one time a year deal was fine. I was happy with the portion size though, as we did have some leftovers, but not a huge amount. We were only three people, so I was concerned with lots of leftovers.

Hi mappie!! Merry Christmas!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/xmas032.gif" alt="" /> Not rum balls, but just saw this cute recipe today online. 1 Pkg J. Higgs® Unsalted Buttery Rounds Snackers 1 Jar Panner Creamy Peanut Butter 2 Pkgs Ginger Evans® Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips 2 Pkgs Vanilla Almond Bark 1 Pkg J. Higgs® Pretzels Mini Twist 1 Pkg Red Cinnamon Candy Directions Spread 1 snack cracker with about ½ to 1 tablespoon of peanut butter. Top with another cracker to create a sandwich. Repeat, until you’ve created as many sandwiches as you’d like. Melt the chocolate chips (or almond bark or other dipping chocolate) in the microwave on half power for 20 second intervals, stirring each time until chocolate is smooth. Dip each sandwich completely in chocolate and place on wax paper. While the chocolate is still wet, turn the cookie into a reindeer! Place one cinnamon candy in the middle of the cookie to create the reindeer nose, and place two pretzel twists as antlers on the top left and top right of the cookie. (If the antlers won’t stay on the front of the cookie, place them on the back or tuck them into the sandwich.)
