Ingredients

• 1 sheet of puff pastry (thawed if frozen)
• 2 medium russet potatoes (about 1 pound), peeled and thinly sliced
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 egg (for egg wash)

How to Make Savory Potato Tartlets

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit your baking sheet. Cut the pastry into 4 equal squares or circles, depending on your desired shape. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
3. In a large bowl, combine the sliced potatoes, olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, and parsley. Toss well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated.
4. Layer the seasoned potato slices on top of each puff pastry square, overlapping slightly to create a beautiful pattern.
5. Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush the edges of the puff pastry with the egg wash for a golden finish.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden, and the potatoes are tender.
7. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use a mandoline slicer for even potato slices, ensuring consistent cooking.
• Allow the puff pastry to thaw completely but keep it cool before rolling to prevent it from becoming sticky.
• Experiment with different herbs based on your preferences or what you have on hand.
• For added flavor, consider layering some cheese, such as Gruyère or feta, between the potato slices.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the russet potatoes for sweet potatoes for a slightly sweeter flavor.
• Add cooked bacon or ham for a heartier version of the tartlets.
• Include vegetables like thinly sliced zucchini or mushrooms for additional texture and flavor.
• Drizzle with balsamic reduction before serving for an extra touch of sophistication.

What to Serve With It

• A fresh green salad with a light vinaigrette to balance the richness of the tartlets.
• A charcuterie board with a selection of meats, cheeses, and olives.
• A glass of crisp white wine or sparkling water with lemon for a refreshing pairing.
• Roasted vegetables for a colorful and nutritious side.
