Ingredients
- 1.2 kg white potatoes
- 50 g salted butter
- ¾ cup thickened cream
- 1 teaspoon sea salt flakes
- 3 rosemary sprigs stem discarded
- ⅓ cup parmesan freshly shaved
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200C.
- Slice potatoes about 2mm thick. I used my food processor on the slicing setting, you can also use a mandolin or a sharp knife.
- Arrange the potatoes in a baking dish as seen in the photos. You can use a rectangle baking dish too. Use all of the biggest slices first, you'll have some end pieces and smaller pieces left which are great little space fillers.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan then add the cream, rosemary, salt and parmesan. Being to the boil and let it bubble away for a couple of minutes then pour evenly over the potatoes. To ensure all of the potatoes get coated, you can use a brush to coat some missed spots with the buttery creamy mixture.
- Place in the oven and roast for 30 - 40 minutes or until the tops of the potatoes are super browned and crispy. Enjoy!
Notes
- Uniform Slices: Ensure the potato slices are uniform in thickness (about 2mm) to guarantee even cooking and a consistent texture throughout the bake. Using a food processor or mandolin can help achieve this.
- Coat Evenly: When pouring the cream mixture over the potatoes, use a brush to coat any missed spots, ensuring that all potatoes are well-covered for maximum flavour and creaminess.
