Tartiflette

Doug made this French winter classic dish a few weeks ago- it is perfect for a cold day!

Tartiflette

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup chopped onions

1/3 lb chopped bacon

2 1/4 lbs sliced white potatoes

½ cup white wine

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

1 lb sliced Reblochon cheese

Heat oil in a skillet and cook the onions for a few minutes. Add the bacon and cook for about 10 minutes. Add the potatoes, wine, salt, and pepper, bring the mixture to a simmer, and cover for another 8 minutes. Place half of the potato mixture in a baking dish and cover with half of the cheese. Cover with the remaining potato mixture and remaining cheese. Bake for 25 minutes or until thoroughly heated and bubbly (and cheese is melted!).

in the oven it goes... cheese is just starting to melt

and now melty-bubbly-cheesy-potato bliss...
