Remarks
Preferably use soft cheeses such as goat cheese and Morbier, which will melt better when cooked.
Thyme goes very well with the cheeses I've used, feta and mozzarella, but if you're unsure about your cheese(s), leave it out.

How to cook potato grenaille
The French call very small potatoes "grenaille". This is a typical way of cooking them: the tiny potatoes are pan-fried in their skins and make an excellent accompanient for meat. Grenaille can be made with any kind of potato; it is a question of size, rather than variety, though I think that firm-textured potatoes, such as rattes or charlottes, work best. I am using rattes in the photos. The cooking is a combined method: boiling first, then frying. This is quicker than using a single method. September 16th 2015481 K4.5 45 min.
