The Deets:
You’ve probably seen the viral potato sandwich by now and if you haven’t you absolutely need to try it. All you have to do is slice a potato, overlap them in layers and cover in lots of cheese. The potatoes bake into a crunchy shell and then you can fill with whatever you want. For this version, I added caramelized onions and baked them right in the gruyere cheese on top of the thin layer of sliced potatoes. Once the potatoes were done,  I spread on some dijon and topped with arugula, turkey and more caramelized onions. This was super easy to make and so tasty!

Viral Potato Sandwich

Ingredients

  • 2 Potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup Mozzarella, shredded
  • 1/3 cup Gruyere, shredded
  • Sea salt
  • Pepper
  • Olive oil 
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 Large white onion

The fillings:

  • Turkey
  • Arugula
  • More caramelized onions
  • Dijon mustard 

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 400. Drizzle some olive oil in a pan and thinly slice onions. Add onions to a pan along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often for about 20-30 minutes. If the pan starts to get dry, add chicken stock or water and continue to cook until the potatoes cook down and become browned and caramelized. 
  • Thinly slice potatoes and coat in a nice glug of good olive oil. season with salt pepper and garlic powder.
  • Overlapping the potatoes lay them on parchment paper in rows of 4 or 5. I did 6 rows but you can do whatever you want. Generously sprinkle with shredded cheese and add spoonfuls of the onions throughout. Bake for about 25 min or until browned, golden and cheese is bubbling.
  • Once potatoes have cooled slightly, fill one side with whatever fixings you want. I did a coat of dijon mustard, a few slices of turkey, a handful of arugula and a few more spoonfuls of caramelized onions. Fold sandwich over and slice. Enjoy!
