"Thirty to forty minutes," to caramelize the onions. FINALLY a recipe that reflects reality! Thank you. I'm so tired of recipes that tell you to saute onions for 5 minutes, until "golden brown" - not unless you're cooking them in the heat of Satan's asshole, pal!

I grew up in New Zealand. Now live in Australia. My grandmother who was from Yorkshire used to make Lancashire Hot Pot when I visited her. She passed away many years ago. Thanks for bringing back that memory for me.
This is so heavy with grease and meat flavours, like a full English in the middle of the day! The timing is spot for this chilly autumn with snow we have all over Europe. Thank you
Alright youtube algoritihm, you've won. You've put this at the top of my feed every time I've refreshed. Even though I've ignored it every time. I've finally clicked. Are you happy now?
Loved this! As a home cook I've attempted Boulangère Potatoes a few times over the years and the low and slow + cartouche approach here is definitely a winner getting beautifully flavoured and properly cooked potatoes without turning the top layer into something that might damage teeth :)
Will is the best instructional chef I've come across...I am a 60 yr. old man and cook, who has been cooking from age 12 to help my Mom, who left homemaking for work, to pay for my college education...I have seen the best intructors, Julia Childs, Graham Kerr, Jacques Pépin, Paul Prudhomme, Justin Wilson, Wolfgang Puck, and Nick Stellino. But this is the best no B.S. straight forward instruction I have seen... Cheers to you Will.
I have cooked with many of the Chefs you listed above. Each had their own style and unique recipes. For instance, Chef Paul put ROUX into everything and heat too. Peppers would be added to this dish. Wolfgang is a character, he would serve a tiny tea cup of this with mini burgers for the stars. Pepin is so much more basic. Chef Bocuse in France, yes, he would add heavy cream and mount au' beurre = whole butter into everything. This recipe looks excellent, I could only improve it with the addition of fresh herbs. Let's get cooking.
@@chefgiovanni What a wonderful world of talent you have been privileged to cook with ...and so interesting to hear of the old standards of each....Paul Prudhomme..New Orleans and its life blood of many dishes there (Roux)..

You can cut your potatoes and onions day before, just store potatoes in cold water into the fridge. You can also do the clarified butter ahead. I was a chef a long time, I make potatoes like this
I do pomme boulangère almost once or two Time a month, it’s really not so complicated. The secret is the bouillon. Here it’s beef, i use a chicken one . And i use just 10% of this amont of butter 😂.
Boulangères potatoes, from a time before people had ovens in their homes and would take their dish to the bakers for the baker to cook in their oven after baking the daily bread
My mum told me she would take food to the bakers funny thing is she ended up living where the bakery was. Top it all it's called bread Street. Rip mum.
Exactement !! C'était ainsi que les anciens faisaient ! Ils laissaient leurs délicieuses préparations chez le boulanger et partaient travailler...le soir ils étaient assurés de retrouver un magnifique plat pour se reposer avec une bonne bouteille 😉 Ils avaient la vie dure mais ils savaient savourer des bons moments de convivialité 😊
For those who don't know; The "milk solid" is milk protein, it what makes the butter burn if you heat it too much. Removing it increases the smoking point of the butter drastically.
As someone who is absolutely _mad_ about potatoes, this feels like the potato pinnacle!!! Beyond excited to make this for Sunday dinner this weekend. So simple, but it's all technique, love and BUTTER 😂 Magnifique et délicieux !
I learned a very rudimentary dish from my Mother-in law, that was pretty good. Thin sliced potatoes in a casserole pan layered. After every layer add dollops of butter and sprinkles of flour, When layers are complete fill the pan with milk. Bake at around 350 or 400 for 90 minutes. It comes out pretty good. Thanks for the video. Yours's looks awesome.
@@terryrutherford2114 weer adapted that to adding onions, ham and cheese to each layerso it's a meal. Also pepper. No added salt because the cheese and ham have salt.

I made this last night. I added a bit too much stock so it took a lot longer to get it to the promised land but once I did it was glorious. Great potato recipe.
I'm a bit confused about the cook time. Is it 1 - 1.5 hours and then turn the temp up for 25 min? Or is it 1.5 hours total, turning the temp up after 45min - 1 hr?
I love potatoes. Such an understated vegetable. Being a vegetarian caramilized onions and potatoes are like heaven. I learned so much from this video and can't wait to put it into action. Thank you for sharing these techniques, especially the parchment paper method and the lower longer temperatures. I realize I have been cooking too hot.
A mushroom, veggie stock really works well with this dish as well. The earthiness of the mushroom stock is a nice counter to the richness of the butter and the sweet from the onions.
@@julian5883 it's being cooked at low temperatures, so virtually any oil or vegetarian fat. But it will not have the butter flavour. I can't emphasise that enough. Note that vegetarian tropical plant oils are full of trans-fats and are not for the health conscious either. So get your oil from cold or temperate climate plants. But you will somehow have to make up that butter richness and flavour somehow....
I cooked this dish for some friends this past weekend. Thank you for the tutorial, made it so easy to follow. Everyone loved it and I’ll be making it again this holiday season for my family 🙏
I see so many recipes that look so tedious, this looks like a bit of work but not crazy but so worth it!! Need to try this - my mouth is still watering!!
I never thought I would make this when I watched this video. But as I was looking in my fridge one morning I stared at some oxtail bone broth and potatoes. I then continued to make the best dish I ever tried. Thank you for sharing ❤️
It’s beautiful. I can almost taste it! One day I will. Also nice surprise to see how easy it is to get clarified butter! What kind of onion did you use and what potato did you use? Was it white onion and Yukon gold?
The recipe in the description calls for Agria Potatoes which I haven't seen in the United States. I'm thinking that Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes would work.
Im fasting from soda pop for 10 days. Why on earth my body is crazy craving potatoes during this fast, I will never understand! Good luck on your fast.
@heisrisen7961 possibly because the starch in potatoes will turn to glucose in your blood - our bodies seem to know this, hence the cravings. Well done on the fasting, I too fast and it has changed my life! I dont blame you one bit for craving this fantastic dish though, but try to come off a fast with mire of a keto approach, lower carb.... Good luck!
Here is what I love about this video. It’s literally what it takes to make this. Very accurate. It’s not “easy 10 min” recipe. This is actually about the same amount of time to make famous chef beef welly. FOR A SIDE DISH. Made in a restaurant and you make 100 portions at once with 3 chefs. Makes sense. Make at home yourself maybe no. Maybe go to the restaurant and pay this man. And respect his craft and honesty. Floors me some of these chefs keep recipes secret. It’s not the recipe it’s the 3 hours of work!
Absolute Ninja level! Will and Jack need their own tv series - travelling round the U.K. using the finest local produce to create dishes interpreted in their and the Fallow way! Commissioning editors take note!
Finally! Love the accuracy about time. It takes time and low and slow to get the flavors. Not 5 minutes like someone else said. It is nice to hear good accurate talk about cooking. I'm thankful that it doesn't have to be high and might words. I just want to cook good tasting foods. Thank you for normalizing food prep
I absolutely love potatoes, onions and stock 😂 so a dream recipe for me although cooking time is quite long but will definitely try this. Also, can I say BIG thank you for telling the real time it takes to caramelise the onions. I have never heard anyone saying it takes this long so when my don’t get done in 10-15 mins, I think its either me or i got bad onions.
A lot of times the comments section is full of comments like: Beautiful or This looks great. But I don’t read a lot of comments of people who actually made it, to give us ALL the feedback about how good (or not good) this recipe is/was. Well, I just made this. And what I can tell everyone is: THIS DISH IS INCREDIBLE!!! It took 3.5 hours to make, what, with the caramelized onions and peeling and mandoline-ing the potatoes and the baking in the oven. Great dish! Highly recommended 👌👌⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1️⃣0️⃣out of 1️⃣0️⃣ 💯
Did you use store bought beef stock or homemade? I imagine it would be so much better with a nice, gelatinous beef stock, but im not going through that trouble just for one dish.
@ I make my own. I always have it handy and this was an excellent opportunity to use it. And yes, the gelatinous and flavorful texture of the Beef Stock pays DIVIDENDS on a recipe like this one.
The recipe calls for 2.5 kg potatoes, block of butter, onions, salt, broth. The amount of onions and the amount of butter that was melted were not specified. The salt amount I guess is by taste. The amount of broth was determined as part of the process. From the people who made this: how much butter and onions. The recipe looks really good, but I don't want to try until I get a better idea on the recipe amounts.
Making it right now. I did it exactly how he did. Only problem is it seems like I somehow ended up with too much beef stock in the pot. And it doesn’t seem to be evaporating. Not sure what to do. It’s quite annoying how little specifics were given but none the less it’s a great video and he’s a great chef. It’s my own fault I did something wrong
Love this channel…on the clarified butter and browning milk solids, in many parts of South Asia, ghee is only ghee if it’s been nuttified by browning the milk solids. Ghee: the original clarified butter.
Hi guys I’m just a home cook but I am going to try this dish . You made the video easy to understand and follow Thanks so much for all the hard work you put in.xx
I’m from the states and used the subtitles to understand his English, fantastic recipe for Thanksgiving or Christmas, will definitely try this recipe. 😃
I am 100% over seeing recipe videos on youtube showing the use of a mandoline without protective gloves. it's a one way ticket to the ER for real my god... if u are reading this and going to try please use something to protect your hand - speaking from experience !!!
What a unique show! I enjoy all your detail that results in perfection, along with the explanations. I never thought about using a cartouche over the potatoes. I'm not much of a onion eater, but this technique intrigues me. Very nice presentation. You're a true artist.😊
I know you’re a pro etc but PLEASE don’t demo a mandoline like that - those things are deadly and so easy to slice a piece of flesh from your hand. And yes, speaking from experience.
Oh man. I’m so trying this, just with Earth Balance and veggie stock. Looks like it’ll go great with sautéed mushrooms and a roasted garlic, onion and pepper medley.
More of this! Food looks outstanding & is simply explained. Chefs not trying to be a comedian and it’s not edited by someone that’s spent too much time on the internet.
the hardest thing for me as a homecook is simultaneously managing evaporation of the liquids and the doneness, caramelization and texture of the solids. This dish is like the ultimate test of balancing the two.
1:41 That is basically the description of ghee making. Ghee isn't just clarified butter, it's clarified butter with milk solids roasted till they're brown (very dark brown in case of Bengali ghee which is beige rather than yellow).
Totally simple -- if you are patient. Technique matters. 120 C = 250 F (248 F) 120 C = 265 F (266 F) The mandoline is the sharpest knife in my kitchen. Avoid visits to emergency rooms! (Also, avoid blood in your food.) USE THE GUARD. Or get some cut-proof gloves, which are inexpensive insurance. My sister had a Thanksgiving feast go awry due to a mandoline cut. Take your time and USE THE GUARD. Then why use it? It's fast. It is far more consistent than a knife. It is fast AND consistent. Any sharp knife in good hands can cut super thin but it's almost impossible to make consistent, parallel cuts by hand. I've used the parchment paper "hat" before, made just as shown. This application is new to me. Also love the result from simply pressing with a heavy plate. Can't wait to make it.
What a great video for teaching us the cartouche method - I'd not seen this before, and it's brilliant, and soooo simple - once explained and demonstrated, it makes perfect sense. Thank you.
WOW is all I can think of saying.......can't imagine how good this dish must taste, but if looks are anything to go by 💯💥Thanks so much for the recipe.....Can't wait to try it.
Butter was the dish. Potatoes was the garnish.😆 looks amazing
I could imagine a gallstone attack if I ate that .
@@juliefall2892 it would be difficult to tell if the pain was a gallstone attack or a coronary!

It’s beautiful. I can almost taste it! One day I will. Also nice surprise to see how easy it is to get clarified butter! What kind of onion did you use and what potato did you use? Was it white onion and Yukon gold?
The recipe in the description calls for Agria Potatoes which I haven't seen in the United States. I'm thinking that Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes would work.
Omg!! Love at first sight. I've been fasting for 2 days, now I'm eyeballing my potatoes. I better stock up on butter....😊 oh baby!!
Im fasting from soda pop for 10 days. Why on earth my body is crazy craving potatoes during this fast, I will never understand! Good luck on your fast.
@heisrisen7961 I need to fast from soda, too. It makes me just want to eat salty stuff.
@heisrisen7961 possibly because the starch in potatoes will turn to glucose in your blood - our bodies seem to know this, hence the cravings.
Well done on the fasting, I too fast and it has changed my life!
I dont blame you one bit for craving this fantastic dish though, but try to come off a fast with mire of a keto approach, lower carb....
Good luck!
@@katedavies9578 Ty! I made it through 10 days easy. I decided to keep going and I’m on day 14 😊.
@heisrisen7961 wow!! That's amazing!! Way to go!
I am French and I approve of this message
boulanger is from when people in the country side would bring their potatoes to cook in the residual heat of the bakers oven
Boulanger also means baker in French.
It's moments like these where I do appreciate the UA-cam algorithm. It's rare, but I'm glad when it happens.
This is one of the top five videos about food i have seen ever. Wow for knowledge and instructions!
All that butter, onion AND potatoes? I love you❤
4:25 audio dude having a vibe
Here is what I love about this video. It’s literally what it takes to make this. Very accurate. It’s not “easy 10 min” recipe. This is actually about the same amount of time to make famous chef beef welly. FOR A SIDE DISH. Made in a restaurant and you make 100 portions at once with 3 chefs. Makes sense. Make at home yourself maybe no. Maybe go to the restaurant and pay this man. And respect his craft and honesty.
Floors me some of these chefs keep recipes secret. It’s not the recipe it’s the 3 hours of work!
00:55 I cut the tip off my finger on a mandoline. It grows back! I'm not even trolling. I use a cut proof glove now.
TRUE. I was peeling a beet and cut the tip off my thumb and grew back 😄
I didn't cut off my finger tip but did get badly cut using a mandolin. Cut proof gloves are a must
Mine grew back but the whole side of my left pointer finger is numb lol. Memories of my sourdough era
Same here!
Yes always use a guard. I sliced the tip off my finger a few years ago.
I love that pan! What brand is it?
This is a text book lesson on tiny, but vital details that change everything overall,from pedestrian to excellence.
Thanks you 🙏
Absolute Ninja level! Will and Jack need their own tv series - travelling round the U.K. using the finest local produce to create dishes interpreted in their and the Fallow way! Commissioning editors take note!
Finally! Love the accuracy about time. It takes time and low and slow to get the flavors. Not 5 minutes like someone else said. It is nice to hear good accurate talk about cooking. I'm thankful that it doesn't have to be high and might words. I just want to cook good tasting foods.
Thank you for normalizing food prep
Thank you guys for sharing your knowledge, you have taught me a lot which has given me so much towards my small business. Thanks again guys
Always nice to see someone from my part of the World (I’m from Preston) doing well.
I’ll shall give these a go.
Thank you from the states. This looks amazing. Can't wait to try it myself.
Don't forget his temperatures were in Celsius (centigrade) - you will have to convert to Fahrenheit.
@@stumccabe Indeed. Thank you for the reminder
I absolutely love potatoes, onions and stock 😂 so a dream recipe for me although cooking time is quite long but will definitely try this.
Also, can I say BIG thank you for telling the real time it takes to caramelise the onions. I have never heard anyone saying it takes this long so when my don’t get done in 10-15 mins, I think its either me or i got bad onions.
A lot of times the comments section is full of comments like: Beautiful or This looks great. But I don’t read a lot of comments of people who actually made it, to give us ALL the feedback about how good (or not good) this recipe is/was.
Well, I just made this. And what I can tell everyone is: THIS DISH IS INCREDIBLE!!! It took 3.5 hours to make, what, with the caramelized onions and peeling and mandoline-ing the potatoes and the baking in the oven.
Great dish! Highly recommended 👌👌⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1️⃣0️⃣out of 1️⃣0️⃣ 💯
Did you use store bought beef stock or homemade? I imagine it would be so much better with a nice, gelatinous beef stock, but im not going through that trouble just for one dish.
@ I make my own. I always have it handy and this was an excellent opportunity to use it. And yes, the gelatinous and flavorful texture of the Beef Stock pays DIVIDENDS on a recipe like this one.
Thanks for that really useful feedback! I find the same thing too!
This is the first vid of yours I've watched. I must make this, two of my favorite root veggies and plenty of butter. I cannot wait,
I know i dont NEED one, but i did just get a mandoline and i really cant believe this was my first suggestion on YT. The stars have aligned!!
Yeah, the stars. You mean the cookies and the truckers that measure everyting you watch to make purchasing suggestion to you 😂😂😂
The recipe calls for 2.5 kg potatoes, block of butter, onions, salt, broth. The amount of onions and the amount of butter that was melted were not specified. The salt amount I guess is by taste. The amount of broth was determined as part of the process. From the people who made this: how much butter and onions. The recipe looks really good, but I don't want to try until I get a better idea on the recipe amounts.
Making it right now. I did it exactly how he did. Only problem is it seems like I somehow ended up with too much beef stock in the pot. And it doesn’t seem to be evaporating. Not sure what to do. It’s quite annoying how little specifics were given but none the less it’s a great video and he’s a great chef. It’s my own fault I did something wrong
No clickbait here. He said he was gonna make the best potato dish. And he did.
Thank you for sharing this - I'm a novice kitchen cook and following step by step - I even think I could give this a decent go. They look delicious.
Impressive. Think I'll do that with roast chicken on Sunday 😀
Aaauuhhhhaaaa, that is exactly what i was thinking on doing.
@@blessedhighlyfavored701 Made it. It was fabulous. Served with chicken and some shredded brussels stir fried with miso, shallots and a ton of garlic.
Thanks for clarifying about the butter
This with a rare beef joint and some greens and you got yourself a perfect Sunday roast
That is a lot of work for a taater dish. looks great.
Love this channel…on the clarified butter and browning milk solids, in many parts of South Asia, ghee is only ghee if it’s been nuttified by browning the milk solids. Ghee: the original clarified butter.
Hi guys I’m just a home cook but I am going to try this dish . You made the video easy to understand and follow Thanks so much for all the hard work you put in.xx
That looks incredible. I am going to try and make this for xmas.
I’m from the states and used the subtitles to understand his English, fantastic recipe for Thanksgiving or Christmas, will definitely try this recipe. 😃
looks lovely but I take my butter potatoless thanks
Perhaps you could have a small piece of toast with your butter? Kerrygold.
A perfectly roasted potato is probably the best form of potato in the wold
I am 100% over seeing recipe videos on youtube showing the use of a mandoline without protective gloves. it's a one way ticket to the ER for real my god... if u are reading this and going to try please use something to protect your hand - speaking from experience !!!
This is one of those things that just take time and are worth it!
10:07 who gets to eat the cartouche?
What a unique show! I enjoy all your detail that results in perfection, along with the explanations. I never thought about using a cartouche over the potatoes. I'm not much of a onion eater, but this technique intrigues me. Very nice presentation. You're a true artist.😊
I know you’re a pro etc but PLEASE don’t demo a mandoline like that - those things are deadly and so easy to slice a piece of flesh from your hand. And yes, speaking from experience.
Thanks for sharing the recipe btw! Am inspired to give it a go - with a protective glove for the mandolin 😂
Experience is the best teacher, bet you only did it once 😢
@@geekay101 so far… though I wear gloves now. Too traumatised from the whole experience to ever do it again without.
@@bondi5000 😂 toughen up
Oh man. I’m so trying this, just with Earth Balance and veggie stock. Looks like it’ll go great with sautéed mushrooms and a roasted garlic, onion and pepper medley.
1:57 No, that's just melted butter.
the milk solids sink to the bottom and he just scoops of the fat on the top
No its not
No shit Sherlock
It was always special when my grandma made this for dinner😊
British people be like "This is the best potato dish in the world" and its just potatoes on top of caramelized onions...
T. Hanks for that recipe ;)
I was thinking the same thing… he looks like a young Tom Hanks even similar quality of the voice just with an accent
The best potato dish in the world is POUTINE.
That Son is in fact, RIGHT !!
poutine #1
Canuck?
More of this! Food looks outstanding & is simply explained.
Chefs not trying to be a comedian and it’s not edited by someone that’s spent too much time on the internet.
I did this tonight with pork chops with carrot and swede mash ,, it was amazing thank you for sharing with us …
Im not foodie or cook but thoroughly enjoyed watching ts being a food simpleton. Thanks.
Isn’t clarified butter, butter without milk solids? So what you’ve got is just melted butter.
the hardest thing for me as a homecook is simultaneously managing evaporation of the liquids and the doneness, caramelization and texture of the solids. This dish is like the ultimate test of balancing the two.
1:41 That is basically the description of ghee making. Ghee isn't just clarified butter, it's clarified butter with milk solids roasted till they're brown (very dark brown in case of Bengali ghee which is beige rather than yellow).
Totally simple -- if you are patient. Technique matters.
120 C = 250 F (248 F)
120 C = 265 F (266 F)
The mandoline is the sharpest knife in my kitchen. Avoid visits to emergency rooms! (Also, avoid blood in your food.) USE THE GUARD. Or get some cut-proof gloves, which are inexpensive insurance. My sister had a Thanksgiving feast go awry due to a mandoline cut. Take your time and USE THE GUARD.
Then why use it? It's fast. It is far more consistent than a knife. It is fast AND consistent. Any sharp knife in good hands can cut super thin but it's almost impossible to make consistent, parallel cuts by hand.
I've used the parchment paper "hat" before, made just as shown. This application is new to me. Also love the result from simply pressing with a heavy plate. Can't wait to make it.
What a great video for teaching us the cartouche method - I'd not seen this before, and it's brilliant, and soooo simple - once explained and demonstrated, it makes perfect sense. Thank you.
WOW is all I can think of saying.......can't imagine how good this dish must taste, but if looks are anything to go by 💯💥Thanks so much for the recipe.....Can't wait to try it.
