Tartiflette Pizza - A thing of beauty


This pizza was so good we had to add it to the blog - It has been quite a while since we posted. Almost a whole year since lockdown

On another good note Maggie and I have both had our first Pfizer vaccination.  So happy, but astonished that some people, including some that we love and hold dear are refusing or even doubtful.  Just do it, for everybody

We saw the recipe on a James Martin show - it is by Richard Bertinet.  Hert is the link to the recipe.  There are 2 recipes included on the link,  both Tartiflette based

We adapted it slightly to cook in our new OONI KARU wood-fired pizza oven.

Simple and easy - all the elements of Tartiflette the recipe is easy enough but you could do this easily even with shop-bought pizza dough

Soften lardons / shallots / leek in a little olive oil

Steam or boil a few new potatoes, cool and slice thinly

Beat egg, creme fraiche or natural yoghurt or cream with a little grated garlic, salt and pepper

Sice Reblochon Cheese

Heat the oven to as hot as it will get and add a pizza stone if you have it or a good baking sheet

Place the ingredients on the pizza  - potatoes, lardon mix (reserve a little), spoon over the sauce, top with the sliced Reblochon and the remaining lardon mix

Bake for about 25 minutes

But please check the recipe

  1. I love your tartiflette anyway so as a pizza topping it must be exceptionally good. I certainly will be giving it a try.

  2. Fingers crossed that it will be sooner rather than later and don't forget we still have the dinner and movie night that we talked about and should have had before "The Virus".

  3. Reminds us of Alsace-themed lunches where we used to live! Delicious but no good for ever-expanding lockdown waistlines!

131 Days After Lockdown : Sunday 3rd August, 2020

PUT YOUR POO IN THE POST  &  COP A FEEL What a lovely Sunday afternoon First visit from Damien & Karen since Karen's personal lockdown sometime ago.  And they bought their very cheeky little chappy with them 'Murphy' Before posting this I discussed whether I may add the post that Karen added to her Facebook and she kindly agreed, wanting to spread the message.  Many of our friends and family have gone through or indeed are still dealing with the disease. The message is simple, even now with Covid-19 in our midst, be aware of your body and make sure to take advantage of any health screening you may be offered This is a long post, but please do not skip this part and go straight to the details of lunch at the bottom Karen    -   It’s been a while since I’ve given everyone an update and this is because healing from the lung operation has been complicated due to an infection and also the results weren’t as I had hoped. During the operation the...
