Creator Notes
These in actuality lovely potatoes are tailored from a recipe for Asiago Potatoes that I stumbled on in the Might per chance well 2008 command of the now extinct “Connoisseur” journal. The first time that I made the unique recipe, all americans adored it. Furthermore, by the ability, I served the potatoes with one other licensed recipe of mine from the same journal, Buffalo Salmon. Nonetheless that is one other legend for one other recipe submission. D) Now that I bask in change into extra exposed to Asian meals and that one in all my correct guests is Thai, I made up our minds once to give it a Thai twist by replacing the basil leaves with Thai basil leaves, adding some lime juice and zest, and obviously some “hotness” to the dish. I additionally halved the cheese filling because the unique recipe is ample to maintain twice the quantity of potatoes indicated in the unique recipe. Trip! —Regine
