INSTRUCTIONS

1. Peel potatoes. Wash and pat them dry. Cut potatoes, crosswise, into
paper-thin slices with a mandoline or vegetable slicer.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
3. Heat half of the oil in a 12-inch nonstick saut. pan over medium heat.
Carefully form 3 separate 4-inch-diameter circles of slightly overlapping
potato slices in the hot oil. Place a slice in the center, if necessary, to
make a solid discup While bottom layer is browning, continue to layer
potatoes in an overlapping circular pattern until the cakes are about 1/2
inch thick. Fry for 8 to 10 minutes, or until bottoms are golden brown.
Season tops with salt and pepper to taste and carefully turn. Fry for
another 6 to 8 minutes, or until potatoes are completely cooked and bottoms
are golden. Remove to a baking sheet and place in preheated oven to keep
warm. Continue to make galettes, as above, using remaining oil and
potatoes.
4. Serve hot as a side dish or as a base for fish, meats, or poultry.

“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
