Potato Slices with Spinach and Goat Cheese

Potato Slices with Spinach and Goat Cheese

This was supposed to be a hash for a Mother’s Day brunch.  However, cooking in a new kitchen and running out of time before the rest of the meal was ready, we changed plans at the last minute.  It turned out to be a good decision, as it was one of the more popular things we served.  Served as an appetizer, just a few ingredients go a long way.  Makes about 15 slices.

Ingredients

1 yukon gold potato
3 oz fresh spinach
4 oz goat cheese
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Salt
Vegetable Oil for frying potatoes

Directions

Slice the potato approximately 1/8” to ¼” thick.  Place slices in hot oil until golden brown on both sides, flip as necessary.  Remove slices from oil, pat dry and place on drying rack.  Lightly salt.

Rough chop spinach and sauté.  When cooked down, place in a small mixing bowl and combine with goat cheese and peppers. 

Place potato slices on a baking pan and top with spinach and goat cheese mixture. 
Cook in oven on broil for 6 minutes.
