Herb-infused potato stacks baked in muffin cups - a flavorful and convenient side dish perfect for entertaining.
Ingredients:
  • 3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, no wider than a muffin tin cup
  • 0.33333334326744 cup melted butter, or as needed, divided
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 0.75 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 0.75 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and generously coat a 12-cup muffin tin with melted butter, saving some for the potatoes.
  • Thinly slice potatoes using a mandoline or vegetable slicer, aiming for 1/16 to 1/8 inch thickness. Discard mostly skin end pieces. Combine potato slices with rosemary, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and melted butter in a bowl. Mix well by hand for 2 to 3 minutes to ensure even distribution, separating slices. Sprinkle a quarter of the cheese over potatoes, toss, then repeat cheese and tossing until all cheese is used.
  • Layer potato slices in the muffin tin, creating a beautiful flower petal effect, with smaller pieces on top.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes until the potatoes are very soft. Test for doneness with a metal skewer. If the potatoes are too brown but not fully cooked, cover the pan with foil for the final minutes of baking.
  • Gently loosen edges of potato roses with a fork and transfer to a serving dish.
