50 Recipes 2011, #39: Very-much-marinated potatoes

[nonelvis]

I've had The Enchanted Broccoli Forest for years but for some reason, have never gotten around to making much out of it. (Most likely it's all the other Moosewood-related cookbooks I have.) Anyway, I had some potatoes, I wanted something other than roasted potatoes or a mayo-based salad, and I found this one, which cooks very thinly sliced potatoes in a vinaigrette.

This is some seriously delicious stuff. The potatoes have just the right mix of vinegary tang and olive-oily unctuousness; I think we could have just had this for dinner and been happy. Best of all: totally vegan, so it might end up on my Thanksgiving table.

You have to take extraordinary measures to keep the broccoli edible. I recommend lightly steaming it separately and adding it after baking the rice base.
