Swiss Raclette
- 2 lbs thin-skinned potatoes, scrubbed (1 to 1 1/2 in. wide)
- 1 cup cocktail onion (to taste)
- 1 lb raclette cheese (see notes)
- 1 cup cornichon pickle (to taste)
- salt and pepper
- Put potatoes in a 4- to 5-quart pan. Barely cover with water, put lid on pan, and place over high heat. When boiling, reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender when pierced, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, Slice cheese; arrange in a shallow 8- by 11-inch casserole or 4 individual casseroles, each about 5 inches wide.
- When potatoes are cooked, drain off most of the water and keep warm.
- Broil cheese about 6 inches below heat until melted, about 5 minutes.
- To eat, put potatoes, onion, and pickles on dinner plates. Spoon hot cheese, a few bites at a time, over potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. If cheese in casserole gets hard, return to broiler to soften, 3 to 4 minutes.
