Method

Potato Pave Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Slice the Potatoes

    Peel and thinly slice the russet potatoes using a mandoline or sharp knife. Aim for uniform thickness, about 1/8 inch.

  3. 3

    Layer the Ingredients

    In a greased baking dish, arrange a layer of potato slices. Brush with melted butter, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese. Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with potatoes on top.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender.

  5. 5

    Cool and Cut

    Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Use a sharp knife to cut the pave into squares or rectangles.

Béarnaise Sauce Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Reduction

    In a small saucepan, combine the finely chopped shallots, white wine vinegar, and tarragon. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and reduce until about 2 tablespoons of liquid remain. Strain and set aside to cool.

  2. 7

    Melt the Butter

    In a separate saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Allow it to slightly cool, but keep it warm.

  3. 8

    Whisk the Egg Yolks

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and the cooled vinegar reduction until pale and slightly thickened.

  4. 9

    Combine and Whisk

    Gradually whisk in the warm melted butter until the sauce is thick and creamy. Season with salt and lemon juice.

Serving

  1. 10

    Plate the Dish

    Place a portion of potato pave on each plate, drizzle with béarnaise sauce, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
