potatoes anna

these potatoes are pure savory yumminess! they have recently become a thanksgiving tradition. i can't remember where i found the recipe, though. i took a picture of some magazine at the dentist.

ingredients

1/2 stick butter

1 t finely chopped thyme

2 lbs russet potatoes

directions

heat over to 425. place butter in a microwave-safe cup and melt in two 20 sec intervals. stir until completely melted. line a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with parchment paper and brush liberally with some butter. stir thyme into remaining butter. peel potatoes and cut in half crosswise and thinly slice potatoes. working quickly and starting in center of skillet, overlap slices in concentric circles to create 1 layer. sprinkle with scant 1/4 t salt and drizzle with about 2 t butter mixture. top with another layer of potatoes and use your hands to press gently; sprinkle with salt and drizzle with butter. repeat, pressing layers gently, until all potatoes and butter are used. coat a sheet of foil with baking spray and cover pan. bake 30 minutes covered with foil and 30 min uncovered. let stand 10 min, then run a spatula around edge and under bottom. turn out onto a cutting board.
