Cuisinart DLC-XP - Manual (Page 32)

Over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a
Cuisinart
® 3-quart sauté pan. Add the chopped garlic and onions
and the drained, sliced leeks; cook until tender and wilted, about
5 minutes. Stir in the vegetable broth, herbs, salt, and pepper;
bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 3 minutes.
Drain, reserving the vegetables and broth separately.
Insert the 4 mm slicing disc. Slice the russet potatoes using firm
pressure; remove and reserve. Slice the sweet potatoes using
firm pressure; remove and reserve.
Arrange half the sliced russet potatoes in the prepared pan; top
with half the sliced sweet potatoes; distribute half the leek/onion
mixture over the sweet potatoes, and sprinkle with the remaining
Parmesan cheese. Repeat the layers, ending with sweet
potatoes. Pour the reserved broth over the potatoes. Top evenly
with the buttered crumb and cheese mixture. Cover with a sheet
of foil that has been coated with cooking spray and bake in the
preheated oven for 45 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake
until the potatoes are tender, 20 – 30 minutes longer. Let the
potatoes rest for 10 – 15 minutes before serving.
Note: If you wish to prepare this dish ahead, blanch both types of
potatoes separately for 3 minutes in boiling water to which
1 teaspoon of vinegar has been added; this will prevent them
from darkening.
