Sorry, but this is something, but not raclette. --Raclette is all about the cheese, simple, unadorned, high quality fresh young cheese that you melt with the slightest bit of browning on the crust. With a good Fendant (Chasselas) to complete it, the wine is fully half the dish. maybe a cornichon and a pearl onion for some acidity, and you eat it in small portions, a potato or so for each cheese portion, so each serving os freshly melted, until you are full. --All this other stuff is wonderful but in the end the cheese just becomes a small part of a completely different dish, with the garlic and meat and all that veg the cheese is no longer the focus. Some things should remain simple.

What is this abomination? No cured meats? Peppers? Barely melted cheese, no browning? Raclette does have rules. And the leeks vinaigrette man. it's supposed to be served cold as an appetizer, leeks must be boiled to the point they almost melt, then chilled, vinaigrette poured on top just before serving. Hot vinaigrette is a big no no.

This looks really tasty but its definitely not raclette. Why do you guys always have to bring in these hipster guys who always go over the top and overcomplicate every recipe, completely deviating from the traditional recipe?

Normally it's Indians, Americans and Filipinos getting triggered over very little. Now I know that the Swiss are just as bad. Imagine getting in a state over grilled meat and veg covered in melted cheese.

With the industrial raclette, you get outside Swiss/Franche/Italy it's ok to use it on whatever, but when you have alpine farm-made raclette it's a sacrilege to put it on something other than potatoes.

I can't begin to emphasize how glad it makes me that he lets us know when it's ok for something to not be as exact as what's happening here. I always worry making something for the first time!

I have been to Chamonix(France)5 or 6 times over the last 20 years and i have never seen a raclette done like this. -Im sure it tastes reasonable.
