A delightful twist on the classic potato cake, this recipe combines crispy textures with rich flavors for a satisfying side dish.
Peel the potatoes and grate them coarsely into a bowl.
Grate the potatoes just before cooking to prevent them from browning.
Add the grated onion to the potatoes and mix well.
The onion adds a subtle sweetness to the dish.
Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat.
Ensure the butter is fully melted and slightly bubbling before adding the potatoes.
Add the potato mixture to the pan, pressing it down to form an even layer.
Press firmly to ensure the galette holds together.
Cook for 10 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy.
Check the edges to ensure even browning.
Flip the galette onto a baking sheet and slide it back into the pan to cook the other side.
Use a wide spatula or plate to flip the galette easily.
Cook for another 10 minutes until the second side is golden and crispy.
Adjust the heat if necessary to prevent burning.
Remove from the pan, slice into wedges, and serve hot.
Garnish with fresh herbs for added flavor.
