Fondant Potatoes
Serves 1
Directions
- 1Peel the potatoes.
- 2For pros, lie the potato on its side, then carve it into a cylinder shape.
- 3For intermediate level, stand the potato upright then cut thin shavings down as you rotate.
- 4For the easiest method, just use a round cutter.
- 5Alternatively, you can skip the shaping altogether and just cut thick slabs.
- 6Season the potatoes with oil, salt, and pepper.
- 7Pan-fry until golden on both sides (6-8 minutes per side).
- 8Add thyme and butter, and then spoon the foamy butter all over the potatoes.
- 9Add the stock.
- 10Transfer the pan into the oven for 30 minutes.
- 11Baste halfway through, then again at the end.
- 12Transfer to a serving platter.
- 13Sprinkle with fresh thyme, and pour all the butter over.
- 14Sprinkle with sea salt flakes if you want.
