Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°.
- Peel and thinly slice the russet potatoes.
- Keep the potatoes in a container of cold water while slicing the other ones.
- Drain and rinse the sliced potatoes well under cold water.
- Thoroughly dry the potatoes using a flour-sack towel or paper towels.
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter to a 6” or 8” cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan over low to medium heat.
- Working from the inside out layer the sliced potatoes to fan out over the pan.
- Drizzle on some melted butter and then season with salt and pepper.
- Shake the pan a little bit to ensure nothing is sticking and then repeat the layer of potatoes, butter, salt, and pepper 3 more times to make 4 total layers.
- Using another same-size pan press the potatoes down to flatten them out and compress them.
- Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes at 425°.
- Remove foil and bake for another 20 to 25 minutes or until well browned on top and cooked throughout.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: This recipe is meant to be served as soon as it is finished cooking. You can keep this covered with foil in the oven at 200° for up to 30 minutes before serving.
- How to Store: Cover it and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can freeze these covered for up to 3 months. Thaw them in the refrigerator for 1 day before reheating.
- How to Reheat: Place the desired number of potatoes anna onto a sheet tray lined with parchment paper and bake at 350° for 6 to 8 minutes or until warm throughout.
- You can use clarified butter instead of whole butter like I did.
- Oil is also a great replacement for butter in this potatoes anna.
- Other ingredients you can add while layering the potatoes are parmesan cheese and fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary.
- You may need to bake a little longer to get that perfect golden brown appearance on top.
