Fondant Potatoes

potatoes

(42 ml) cooking oil

(56 g) salted butter

thyme

rosemary

garlic, (optional)

chicken broth

salt and pepper, (to taste)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Peel the potatoes, rinse with cold water, and pat dry with paper towels. Then slice the ends off the potatoes so they lay flat on either side. Cut them into 2 inch thick slices.

Heat cooking oil in a large cast-iron or oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

Place the potatoes cut-side down in a single layer, and cook until golden brown, 6 to 7 minutes. Flip and brown the other side for  4-5  minutes.

Remove the skillet from the heat and drop in butter, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and chicken stock. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Place in the preheated oven and bake, uncovered until the potatoes are fork-tender and creamy inside, about 30 minutes. If potatoes aren&#039;t tender, add 1/4 cup more stock and let it cook for 10 more minutes.

To check if the potatoes are tender, insert a skewer or toothpick in the thickest part of the potatoes it should slide in easily.

Spoon the butter mixture over the cooked potatoes, garnish with parsley, or sprigs of thyme, if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

Before beginning, please see my recipe notes for a quick suggestion on the preparation of your russet potatoes.

To cut your potatoes, rinse potatoes and fill a medium bowl with cold water. Cut potatoes into your barrel shaped rounds (I used a round metal biscuit cutter and trimmed as needed to smooth out all sides) and place into the bowl of water.

Soak

Once all of the potato rounds are cut, allow the potatoes to soak in the bowl of water for about 5 minutes to remove the starch. Rinse again in cold water and pat the rounds dry. Then season with salt &amp; pepper (I used white pepper) before transferring into your heated pan.

Preparing The Potatoes

Preheat

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and bring your cast iron skillet (or other heavy bottomed oven safe skillet) with extra virgin olive oil to medium heat on the stove top.

Place cut potato rounds in your heated pan, and cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Flip and cook the second side until also golden brown. Add butter and melt in the skillet, spooning over the first browned side of the potatoes. Add chives (and optional garlic cloves).

Transfer

Pour the chicken (or vegetable) stock into the skillet with the potato rounds and transfer skillet to your preheated oven.

Cook

Cook the fondant potatoes for about 30 minutes, or until the &#x27;white&#x27; portion of the middle has become more white and the potatoes are tender inside. *If too much stock has evaporated during cooking, add more as needed. You will want only a couple of tablespoons of the stock left over to serve with the fondant potatoes. **If there is too much stock left over when the potatoes are done cooking, remove the fondant potatoes to a plate and return the pan with stock to the oven to allow more stock to evaporate off.

Garnish

Garnish with chopped parsley (or fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme) and serve with 2-3 tablespoons of the remaining chicken stock.
