Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 Idaho potatoes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Canola or olive oil, for searing the potatoes
About 4 cups vegetable, chicken or beef stock
2 sticks (1 cup) butter
8 cloves garlic
4 sprigs fresh sage
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 sprigs fresh thyme
Sea salt, for serving
Chopped chives, for garnish

Steps:

  • Peel and cut the potatoes into the size and shape of a soap dish. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Set a saucepan over medium-high heat and add some oil. Sear the potatoes in the hot pan on both sides till golden brown. Add the stock until it just covers the potatoes, then add the butter, garlic, sage, rosemary and thyme. Bring to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are golden and tender, 30 to 45 minutes. Hold in the cooking liquid until ready to eat, the longer the better.
  • Slice and serve sprinkled with a little sea salt and chopped chives.

These potatoes were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

These potatoes were amazing! I used Yukon Gold potatoes and they were so fluffy and delicious. I served them with a roasted chicken and they were the perfect side dish.

The potatoes were a bit too crispy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try baking them for a shorter amount of time next time.
