    Cut potatoes into even cylinders using a cutter or knife.

    Boil until tender.

  3. 3.

    Clarify butter by melting it in the microwave, letting it cool, then scooping out the milky residue.

  4. 4.

    In a pan, melt half of the clarified butter over medium heat.

  5. 5.

    Place potato cylinders in the pan, flat-side down, and brown for about 5 minutes.

  6. 6.

    Add crushed garlic, thyme, rosemary, and the rest of the clarified butter.

  7. 7.

    Add a small amount of warmed chicken stock to almost cover the potatoes.

  8. 8.

    Season with salt and pepper.

  9. 9.

    Cover with parchment paper and simmer over medium-high heat for about 40–50 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced and the potatoes are cooked.

  10. 10.

    Remove the parchment paper and cook for another 15–20 minutes, allowing the potatoes to caramelize and stick to the bottom of the pan.
