Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 Russet potatoes
1/4 c Olive oil
8 oz Soft mild goat cheese
3 tb Milk -- up to 4 tb
1/4 c Fresh herbs -- finely chopped,
- i.e. parsley, chervil, thyme,
- and/or tarragon
1 cl Garlic -- finely minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Pink peppercorns
Pistachios -- finely chopped, toasted
Red bell pepper -- chopped
Fresh herb sprigs -- for garnish,
- (optional)
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Cut the potatoes crosswise into 1/4" thick slices and arrange in a
single layer on one or more oiled baking sheets, as needed. Drizzle
the potato slices with olive oil. Roast them in the oven, turning
them once, for about 30 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. If
potato slices are roasting unevenly, rotate the baking sheet
occasionally. Transfer the potatoes to paper towels to drain and
season with salt.
In a food processor combine the goat cheese, milk, herbs, garlic, and
salt and pepper to taste and puree until smooth.
Top each potato slice with a dollop of the cheese mixture either with
a teaspoon or piped from a pastry bag. Garnish each hor d'oeuvre with
the pink peppercorns, pistachios, red bell pepper or herb sprigs.
