    List of Ingredients




    Makes 6 servings


    6 Jerusalem artichokes, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices (about 3/4 pound)
    2 large baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices (about 1 1/4 pounds)
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne
    1/4 cup olive oil
    1 tablespoon butter
    1/2 cup chopped onions
    2 teaspoons chopped garlic
    3/4 cup grated cheddar (3 ounces)
    1 tablespoon flour
    1/2 cup milk
    1 cup dried fine bread crumbs
    2 tablespoons chopped parsley
    2 teaspoons Rustic Rub (recipe below)

    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

    Place the Jerusalem artichokes and potatoes in a mixing bowl and season with the salt, black pepper and cayenne. Mix in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and toss thoroughly to coat.

    Butter the bottom and sides of a 2-quart baking dish. Put half of the artichoke-potato mixture in the bottom of the pan, then sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the chopped onions, 1 teaspoon of the chopped garlic, 1/4 cup of the cheese and the flour. Top this with the remaining artichoke-potato mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup onions, 1 teaspoon garlic and 1/2 cup cheese. Pour the milk over the mixture.

    In a bowl, mix together the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil with the bread crumbs, parsley and rub. Spread this topping evenly over the mixture. Bake for 1 hour, or until the potatoes are tender.

    Serve hot.

    Rustic Rub:
    8 tablespoons paprika
    3 tablespoons cayenne
    5 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
    6 tablespoons garlic powder
    3 tablespoons onion powder
    6 tablespoons salt
    2 1/2 tablespoons dried oregano
    2 1/2 tablespoons dried thyme

    Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Blend well.
