- 3 clovesgarlic(crushed)
- 4russet potatoes(peeled)
dairy
- 1 stickunsalted butter
pantry staple
- 1 tspkosher salt
- 1/4 tspblack pepper(cracked)
Instructions
- Preheat oven 425 F.
- Heat up the unsalted butter in the non-stick skillet and add in the crushed garlic. Melt the butter on low heat and let the garlic really infuse into the butter around 10 minutes on very low heat.
- While the butter is melting, remove the leaves from the thyme and finely chop the thyme leaves and sage leaves and put them in a big bowl.
- Pour the infused butter into the bowl. You can either strain the garlic out of the butter or keep the garlic in and pour into the herbs.
- Peel the potatoes and using a mandolin or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin pieces and place in the bowl with the herbs.
- Toss the potatoes in the herbed butter and season with the kosher salt and cracked black pepper.
- Toss to coat evenly.
- Place the potatoes in the non-stick skillet, tightly overlapping in a circular design, repeating until you are done with all the potatoes.
- Place on the stove and cover with the cartouche (the parchment paper lid) and lay over a weight to press the potatoes down into the pan.
- Crisp up on the stove for 5 minutes on medium low.
- Remove the weight from the top and place in the pre-heated oven for 40-45 minutes until the edges are a deep golden color and the knife runs through it easily.
- Flip the potatoes over onto a plate and season well with sea salt.
- Serve immediately.
