Directions

  1. 1Cut potatoes into even cylinders using a cutter or knife.
  2. 2Boil until tender.
  3. 3Clarify butter by melting it in the microwave, letting it cool, then scooping out the milky residue.
  4. 4In a pan, melt half of the clarified butter over medium heat.
  5. 5Place potato cylinders in the pan, flat-side down, and brown for about 5 minutes.
  6. 6Add crushed garlic, thyme, rosemary, and the rest of the clarified butter.
  7. 7Add a small amount of warmed chicken stock to almost cover the potatoes.
  8. 8Season with salt and pepper.
  9. 9Cover 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. 10Remove the parchment paper and cook for another 15–20 minutes, allowing the potatoes to caramelize and stick to the bottom of the pan.
