Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 2.5 pounds (1.13 kilograms) Yukon Gold Potatoes
  • 1 cup grated Asiago Cheese

Seasonings and Flavor Enhancers:

  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 5 large cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper

Thickeners and Additional Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Optional Garnishes:

  • Fresh rosemary
  • Sour cream
  • Creme fraiche
  • Grated Parmesan cheese
  • Grated Asiago cheese

Instructions

  1. Thoroughly cleanse potatoes under cool running water, ensuring all dirt and debris are removed, then allow to drain completely on a clean kitchen towel.
  2. Create a flavorful coating by whisking melted butter with cornstarch, finely chopped garlic, seasoned salt, cracked black pepper, and fragrant rosemary leaves until smooth and well-combined.
  3. Gently fold potatoes into the herb-infused butter mixture, ensuring each slice is generously and evenly coated with the aromatic seasoning.
  4. Select a robust cast iron skillet and generously lubricate the surface with remaining butter, creating a protective layer to prevent sticking.
  5. Artfully arrange potato slices in a cascading circular pattern, delicately nestling shredded Asiago cheese between each layer to create a rich, melty interior.
  6. Position the skillet on the lowest oven rack and roast at 425°F, allowing potatoes to transform into a golden, crispy delicacy with tender, creamy centers.
  7. After approximately 25-30 minutes, remove from oven when edges are beautifully caramelized and cheese is bubbling with a tempting golden-brown crust.

Notes

  • Prep Ahead: Rinse potatoes thoroughly to remove excess starch, ensuring a crispier texture and more even cooking.
  • Coating Magic: Whisking butter with cornstarch, garlic, and rosemary creates a flavorful, protective layer that helps potatoes crisp up beautifully.
  • Layering Technique: Arrange potatoes in a circular pattern with Asiago cheese between layers for maximum flavor and visual appeal.
  • Skillet Secret: Using a cast iron skillet helps distribute heat evenly and creates a perfectly golden, crispy bottom.
  • Temperature Precision: Baking at 425°F on the lowest oven rack ensures potatoes cook through while developing a crunchy exterior.
  • Cheese Boost: Asiago adds a rich, nutty flavor that elevates this simple potato side dish from ordinary to extraordinary.
