They turned out great. Ended up cooking them for about an hour and just as Chef John did covered them with foil for the last 15 mins. Served it with Chef John's version of beef tenderloin in caramelized pan sauce and a side of broccolini on hot cast iron serving platters. A fancy meal for sure and it was amazing. Thanks Chef John for another great recipe......keep em comin!
Presentable and very tasty. My Easter dinner guests were very impressed. Mandolin came in handy. I used disposable muffin tins for easy clean-up. Will definitely make these again. Thank you CJ.
Easy and fun to make. They look lovely on the plate.
Very nice presentation. I had to exclude the cheese as I needed a non-dairy side dish. It still was quite tasty. Next time I will arrange the potato slices on more of an angle in the muffin tray...the ones I merely stacked didn't look as "flowery" as the ones I put in on an angle. I also covered the muffin tray for the first 4o minutes and then uncovered for another 15. This ensured that the potatoes cooked all the way through when covered and then added a very nice golden colour with them uncovered. No burnt bits at all.
For anyone interested in how these reheat, I tried one in the microwave and that was a little soggy. I tried one in the oven for about 12 minutes and that was better, but became a little too hard - difficult to cut through with a regular knife. I think the best way is to microwave to get the middle hot, and then stick in the oven for about 5 minutes to get just a touch of that crispiness back.
I seasoned the potatoes with white pepper, and a lemon herb mix. Cooked for one hour. Didn't need to cover it with foil, as the potatoes were actually cooked inside before the "petals" acquired the proper color. They were relatively easy to remove from the pan, but I caution other cooks against pressing the potatoes slices against sides of the pan cups when forming the rosebuds; they'll burn and stick to the pan, making it hard to remove the roses from it. I served this dish with roasted lamb shoulder at a Christmas party. Big success. Simple, a little time-consuming, but totally worthy.
so delicious, everyone in the house loved them
Excellent! Without much artistic ability, I had to use the extra large muffin tin. Looked impressive and tasted great. Thank you!
I LOVED THESE, all twelve members of my family did I've made them more than once and they absolutely LOVED them
4 star on taste however, it basically ruined my muffin pan and i broke a rubber spatula trying to extract them.
