Pomme de Terre á la Berrichonne
from insightflavour.com
Ingredients
600g-800g (between 1-2 pounds) of starchy potatoes (Russet, Idaho, Yukon Gold), peeled and cut into 1×2 inch chunks
100g (3.5oz) slab bacon cut into lardons (or regular bacon)
1.5 tbsp butter (*see note below)
2 shallots, diced
3 small red onions cut into quarters or sixths
1 cup of white wine
1 cup of vegetable stock
bouquet garni (1 sprig rosemary, 2 sprigs thyme, 1 sprig oregano)
2 tbsp olive oil
5-6 sprigs fresh parsley, chopped or torn into pieces
fresh cracked black pepper
Recipe summary: Soften shallots over medium heat. Add bacon and let the fat render for a couple minutes. Nestle potato chunks over the bacon and shallots in a single layer. Add the bouquet garni, stock, and wine. Place the red onion wedges on top of the potatoes. Season with black pepper and brush the tops of the potatoes and onions with the olive oil. Roast for 60 minutes at 420F/220C/200c fan. Garnish with fresh parsley.
**Notes: try cooking bacon first to render fat for about five minutes. Remove the bacon to crisp up and cook the shallots in the fat. Continue with recipe, adding bacon at the very end, on top of the potatoes. Omit the butter if you use this method.
