Instructions
To prepare the Potato Towers with Smoked Salmon and Provola, start by washing and drying the potatoes thoroughly. Slice the potatoes thinly using a mandolin or a knife, aiming for slices about 3 mm thick.
Next, arrange the potato discs on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, brushing the tops lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper on each slice for added flavor.
While the potatoes bake, slice the provola cheese into pieces that are just slightly smaller than the potato slices. For each tower, you’ll need three slices of potato, 20 small pieces of provola cheese, and 10 slices of smoked salmon.
Once you have all the ingredients prepared, start assembling the towers. Begin by placing the first slice of potato on your working surface. On top of this, layer the smoked salmon, followed by the provola cheese. Place the second slice of potato to close the tower, repeating this process for all the towers.
Finish by sprinkling a bit of fresh thyme over the top of each tower for a fragrant touch. Bake until the potatoes are golden and the cheese has melted, creating a delightful and savory stack that will surely impress your guests!
Enjoy these crisp, creamy potato towers with smoked salmon and provola as a delicious appetizer to kick off any meal.
