How to Make Raclette American Style

  1. Preheat your raclette appliance according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  2. Wash and cut the potatoes into halves or quarters (depending on size). Toss them with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
  4. While the potatoes are baking, prepare your toppings: arrange the sliced ham, salami, cornichons, mustard, chives, and walnuts in separate bowls.
  5. Once the potatoes are cooked and the raclette is heated, arrange the potato halves on the raclette plates.
  6. Place the raclette cheese slices on the designated area of the appliance to melt.
  7. Once the cheese is melted and bubbly, scrape it onto the potatoes.
  8. Add your desired toppings to the melted cheese and potatoes.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy with your friends!
