Instructions
- Wash, peel and slice potatoes 1/4" thick and drop into cold water to prevent browning. When ready, drain and pat potatoes dry with paper towels.
- In a 9 or 10" heavy bottomed cast iron or non-stick skillet, pour about 1/4" butter. Over a medium heat, arrange potato slices in a circle, sprinkle with some herbs, and a little salt and pepper.
- Add more butter and continue layering potatoes, thyme, salt and pepper, finishing with a layer of potatoes.
- Drizzle top with any remaining butter.
- Cook over medium heat until bottom begins to get brown and crusty.
- Reduce heat, cover and continue cooking until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 30-40 minutes depending on depth of pan and thickness of potatoes.
- When done, invert onto a serving plate and cut into wedges.
- Sprinkle with more fresh herbs.
- *To clarify butter, heat over a low heat until butter is melted. Spoon off and discard white foam. What remains is clarified butter. It has a higher smoking point than regular butter.
