Divide the potatoes into 4 parts. You need to arrange them inside the circles. Make a layer out of 1 portion of the potatoes so that they slightly overlap. Sprinkle with ¼ of the cheese. Place the next portion of the potatoes on the cheese. Add another ¼ of the cheese. Then make the second galette with the rest of the ingredients. |
