Ingredients
- 3large russet potatoes, sliced ⅛-inch thick
- 8tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
- 1teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- 1teaspoon black pepper
- 3garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 1teaspoon fresh rosemary needles
- ¼teaspoon dried oregano
- 2tablespoons dry white wine or vermouth
- 1cup sliced green olives
- ½cup diced pickled green tomatoes
- ½cup sliced scallions
- 1teaspoon white wine vinegar
Preparation
- Step 1
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Toss potatoes in a bowl with 3 tablespoons of oil, the salt and pepper.
- Step 2
Heat an 8 or 9-inch ovenproof sauté pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat and add 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Tightly shingle the sliced potatoes inside the pan, starting around the outside and moving in, and sprinkling the top of each layer with some of the garlic, rosemary and oregano. There will be 2 or 3 layers of overlapping potatoes. Drizzle with a little more oil if the potatoes look very dry on top.
- Step 3
Continue cooking until the sides of the potatoes start to turn golden brown, about 5 minutes (you don’t want them too brown, they will continue to darken in the oven). Add the white wine to the pan and transfer to the oven for about 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is starting to lightly brown.
- Step 4
Meanwhile, combine the olives, pickled tomatoes, scallions, 2 tablespoons olive oil and white wine vinegar to make the relish. Serve the potatoes right out of the skillet and topped liberally with olive relish.

Pickled green tomatoes are also known as Tom Olives --you can find that everywhere
Why would you heat the pan before doing the fairly elaborate procedure of shingling the potatoes in it? Sounds like a recipe for burnt fingers.
I really struggle with this one. I love the concept but my potatoes are never evenly cooked through. Some are really mushy, others a bit crispy. They're the same type of potato from the same purchase. What is going on?
Had no pickled green tomatoes (that's highly exotic in Geneva, Switzerland) so made the relish with some green olives, two chopped cornichons (sour pickles), a tablespoon of capers, and the scallions. Next time, I'll do more layers, maybe cover with foil for part of the oven time. Delicious!
