- fresh garlic cloves, minced (to taste)
- fresh basil, chopped
- olive oil
- sea salt & black pepper
- sliced good-quality imported smoked gouda cheese
- Preheat your oven to 375 to 400 degrees.
- Slice the tomatoes into thin slices and place on a large flat plate, set aside. Saute the spinach leaves in a drizzle of olive oil and salt lightly taste, set aside.
- Add some chopped parsley, mix well and cover with plastic and set aside.rnrnUsing a large flat baking sheet, coat the bottom with cooking spray or a light drizzle of olive oil. Begin to layer the potato slices on the bottom in a freeform shape.

- Place the layered galette into the oven on the middle rack and let roast for approximately 1 hour (it will begin to lightly brown and bubble.)
- Check the doneness of the inner potatoes by piercing with a fork (will be very soft and tender when done.)
- When completely cooked through, place your oven on broil for only about 3 to 4 minutes or so... depending on your oven's heat index to yield the delicious crispy top layer shown in my photos.rnrnRemove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
