CLASSIC LYONNAISE POTATOES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring the potatoes up to a boil and blanch for 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, drain, and cool. In a large ovenproof saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Saute the onions until caramelized, about 8 to 10 minutes. Turn the onions into a bowl. Place the pan back on the stove and melt the stick of butter. When the butter has melted, cover the bottom of the pan with 1/3 of the potatoes.
- Season with salt and pepper. Cover the first layer of potatoes with 1/2 of the onions. Cover the onions with 1/3 of the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat the layering until all of the potatoes and onions are used. Place the pan in the oven and cook for 10 to 12 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown. Remove the pan from the oven.
- Using a spatula, gently lift the potatoes out of the pan and place on a platter. Garnish with parsley.

Tips:
- Use the right potatoes. Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Golds or fingerlings, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as Russets, and they will give you a more creamy texture.
- Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
- Soak the potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to remove the starch from the potatoes, which will make them less likely to stick together.
- Cook the potatoes in a combination of butter and oil. This will give them a nice crispy crust.
- Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Cook the potatoes until they are golden brown and crispy. This will usually take about 10-15 minutes.
- Serve the potatoes immediately. They are best when they are hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Lyonnaise potatoes are a classic French dish that is easy to make and delicious. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that will impress your family and friends.
