Method

  • Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin round slices, wash them thoroughly in cold water to take out the starch, dry them with a cloth and make sure that they are well dried.
  • Put some butter into a casserole or sauté pan and arrange the potatoes in layers overlapping each other, reversing the overlapping with each layer. Dot each layer with butter and sprinkle with salt, cover and cook in a hot oven (425°F / 220°C / Gasmark 8. for between 30 and 40 minutes until the potatoes are tender.

  • Serve and Enjoy!
