INSTRUCTIONS
1. preheat oven to 400 degrees
2. peel the potatos and thinly slice them lengthwise. *this was the most
difficult part to do - he says you should get about 50 slices from the two
potatoes!. Wash the potatoes, drain off the water, and pat the slices dry
with paper towels.
3, places four pies of plastic wrap (each 6 inches square) on the table.
arrange six overlapping slices of potato in the center of each square and
place a piece of fish on top. Sprinkle with salt & pepper. Arrange another
six slices of potato, also overlaping, on top of the fish and fold the
plastic around them so they are completely wrapped. Refrigerate until ready
to cook (not too far ahead, or the potatoes will discolor) or cook
immediately.
4. At cooking time, divide the 2 T each of olive oil and peanut oil between
two nonstick skillets, and place over medium heat. Carefully unwrap the
potato-fish packages and with a large spatula, transfer them to the
skillets, placing two in each skillet. Saute for 5 minutes. Carefully turn
(so the arrangment is not disturbed) and saute 5 minuts or until the
potatoes are nicely browned. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
*In his cookbook, the analysis says 18G of fat - not sure if you could
reduce this by reducing the amount of oil used in frying - would think so.
Not something you would want to make every day, but good company dish.
