Fontina Potato Cake

Method

Roasting the Mushrooms

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mushrooms

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Clean the mushrooms and cut larger ones into halves or quarters.

  2. 2

    Season and Roast

    In a mixing bowl, toss the mushrooms with olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Spread the mushrooms on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Making the Marsala Demi Glace

  1. 3

    Cook Shallots

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add chopped shallots and sauté until translucent.

  2. 4

    Add Marsala and Stock

    Pour in the Marsala wine and let it reduce by half. Add the beef or veal stock and continue to simmer until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper.

Preparing the Fontina Potato Cake

    Cook the Potatoes

    Boil the diced potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and mash until smooth.

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, grated Fontina cheese, eggs, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

  3. 7

    Bake the Cake

    Grease a baking dish with butter and pour in the potato mixture. Bake in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 30-35 minutes or until golden and set.

Cooking the Protein

  1. 8

    Cook the Veal or Chicken

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the veal chop or chicken breast with salt and pepper, then cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
