Potato Galette

Don’t be deterred by the fancy name. A potato galette is really just a version of hash browns. Julia Child made these famous on her show because it was elegant and an all-occasion food. It has few ingredients and is pretty easy to assemble.

A Galette consists of a single-layer crust. Once you create the foundation, all that’s left is final seasoning and serving. This is a great addition to brunch.

Two important things to remember about this recipe. You cannot use any other type of potato other than Russet. It has just the right amount of starch to hold everything together. Also, make sure you make the potatoes a day ahead. You want to grate them cold.
