cookDuck Fat-Potato Galette with Caraway and Sweet Onions

From: bonappetit.com
SERVES 6

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted, divided, plus more for pan
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
2 tablespoons rendered duck or bacon fat, melted
1 teaspoon (or more) kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds medium Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled, cut into 1/8'-thick slices with a mandoline or V-slicer
1 small sweet onion (such as Maui), very thinly sliced

Arrange a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°. Brush a foil- or parchment-lined baking sheet with butter; set springform ring on top.

Toast caraway in a small skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Let cool. Place in a resealable plastic bag; crush with a rolling pin or bottom of a skillet. Place in a large bowl. Add duck fat, 2 Tbsp. butter, 1 tsp. salt, and pepper. Add potatoes; toss to coat.

Arrange 1/4 of potatoes in an even layer inside ring on baking sheet, overlapping as needed. Toss onion in a large bowl with 1 Tbsp. melted butter. Arrange 1/3 of onion over potatoes. Repeat layers twice more, finishing with a layer of potatoes. Carefully remove ring.

Bake until potatoes are tender, about 45 minutes. Brush with 1 Tbsp. butter. Bake until edges of potatoes are deep golden and top is crisp, 5–10 minutes longer.

Run a thin spatula under galette to loosen from foil. Slide onto a platter. Season with salt, if desired.
