A wonderful melt-in-the-mouth accompaniment to a meat dish.
Ingredients:
2 1/2 lbs new potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 large onions, finely sliced
4 sprigs thyme, chopped
3 1/2 ounces melted butter
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 325°F
2. Slice the potatoes into rounds the thickness of a coin.
3. Heat the oil in a large saucepan and add the onions, season with a little salt, lots of pepper and the thyme.
4. Cook gently for about 15 mins until softened.
5. Generously butter a large roasting tin and arrange a layer of potatoes over the base, overlapping each slice with a sprinkling of onions.
6. Drizzle with a little of the melted butter and season.
7. Continue layering, drizzling with butter, sprinkling with onions and seasoning until all the potatoes have been used, finishing with a top layer of potatoes.
8. Cook in the top of the oven for 1 hr - the potatoes should be meltingly soft and the top golden and crusty.
