Melted French Potatoes

Method:

1)      Set oven at 160 degrees Celsius

2)      Slice 4 onions

3)      Peel 4-8 potatoes and cut in half and leave in a pot of water to prevent oxidization

4)      In a pan add 3-4 Tbsps of butter and drizzle with oil (grapeseed or canola) to prevent the butter from burning

5)      Fry the onions till translucent and put them on the bottom of a baking tray

6)      Put the cut potatoes ON TOP of the onions in the tray (the potatoes should be sitting on the onions)

7)      Pour chicken stock into the tray till the potatoes are submerged half-way in the stock. Stock must not cover the potatoes completely. *Note: Don’t splash the stock all over the potatoes. Pour it gently at the edge of the baking try and allow the liquid to spread throughout the tray and fill up till the half way point.

8)      Sprinkle fresh thyme on the potatoes

9)      Bake for 20-30 minutes or till done.
