For me potatoes are both delicious, nutritious, and provide seemingly endless ways of preparation. They really are the ultimate food. In fact, I saw an article the other day, where one man was going to live for an entire year eating nothing but potatoes.
So before anyone complains yes this is another potato recipe, but they always prove really popular, and the ingredients are easily accessible and won’t cost the earth.This dish does take a little longer to cook but the end result is well worth the wait.
Ingredients
2 tbsp vegetable oil
3 large russet potatoes (other varieties will not work as well)
salt and pepper to taste
a knob of butter (a 2 or 3 tablespoon size chunk)
4 thyme sprigs
1/2 cup chicken broth or stock, more if needed
Roast at 425 F (220 C) until tender; it will take about 30 minutes. Like I said, this isn’t “2 minutes on HIGH” in the microwave, but it will result in tender potatoes with unbelievable flavor!
