Ingredients
- 3 to 4 small or medium potatoes
- ½ stick butter
- 2 Tbsp Herbs de Provence
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 clove garlic finely chopped
- generous pinch of fresh rosemary leaves
Instructions
- Remove the Camembert from its wooden box and set the cheese aside. Place the bottom of the wooden box into the center of a round baking dish or a small cast iron skillet.
- Peel and evenly slice the potatoes. Place them in a row around the sides of the baking dish/skillet, keeping the cheese box securely in the middle.
- Melt butter in a bowl or measuring glass. Add the Herbs de Provence seasoning and salt and pepper to the melted butter and whisk to combine.
- Drizzle about half of the butter mixture on top of the potatoes and set the remaining butter aside.
- Place potatoes in the oven and bake at 400°F for about 40 minutes.
- Carefully remove the cheese box from the potatoes and toss it away. Remove the plastic packaging from the Camembert cheese and either score the top of the cheese with a crosshatch pattern or remove the top and side rind entirely.
- Place the cheese in the center of the potatoes where the box previously was.
- Add the chopped garlic and rosemary to the remaining melted butter mixture and drizzle over the cheese and potatoes.
- Return to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes, or until the camembert is melty and hot.
- Serve immediately.
