Original Raclette Recipe

Traditional and simple.

For 4 Persons.

8 small/medium potatoes
700g Raclette Cheese
1 jar pickled gherkin cucumbers (cornichons)
4 small onions (or shallots)
24 slices salami or ham
freshly ground pepper

Take a slice of cheese and place onto a pan and place under the grill to melt. In the meantime take a hot potato from the top of the grill and cut it into small pieces with your knife. Take the pan with the melted cheese and give it a shake to loosen the cheese and pour over your potato. Grind some pepper over it and let stand for a short moment (because it can be very hot) while you prepare the next pan with some more cheese and place it back under grill to allow to melt while you are eating. Serve with onion and cornichons.
