LYONNAISE POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• Peel the potatoes and cut them in half lengthwise. Then, cut each potato half into slices about a 1/4" thick.
• Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and add water to cover. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. As soon as a boil has been reached, boil for 5-6, until they are al dente. Drain well and set aside until ready to use.
• Add the butter to a large, oven-safe skillet (cast iron is best) over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring every so often until softened. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more.
• Turn off the heat and transfer the onions and garlic to a bowl off to the side.
• Transfer half of the potatoes to the pan and sprinkle 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper over the top of them.
• Scatter the onions and garlic across the potatoes. Then, top with a layer of the remaining potatoes, another 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Drizzle olive oil over the top and transfer to the oven.
• Bake for 40 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley, serve warm and enjoy.

LYONNAISE POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the sliced onions, olive oil and half the butter in your largest frying pan. Cook over a low-medium heat until the onions are super-soft but not golden-brown yet - this might take up to 30-35 minutes.
• Meanwhile bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Slice the potatoes into 1cm/½ in thick slices. Once the water is boiling, add the potatoes and when the water has returned to the boil, set your timer for 3 minutes. Drain immediately and leave in the colander to steam dry. Heat the oven to 200C/180C/Gas 6.
• When the onions are done, remove from the heat and stir through the parsley and thyme with the garlic and some generous seasoning. Gently toss the onion mixture and par-boiled potatoes together - you can do this in the frying pan if they fit, or a large mixing bowl.
• Tip everything into a large baking dish - you don't want the mixture to sit any deeper than 5cm/2in. Arrange and press the top down a little to roughly flatten. Dot the remaining butter all over the top.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden-brown and crisp, and the potatoes cooked through. A little extra garnish of chopped parsley and fresh thyme is nice, but not strictly necessary.

• Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring the potatoes up to a boil and blanch for 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, drain, and cool. In a large ovenproof saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Saute the onions until caramelized, about 8 to 10 minutes. Turn the onions into a bowl. Place the pan back on the stove and melt the stick of butter. When the butter has melted, cover the bottom of the pan with 1/3 of the potatoes.
• Season with salt and pepper. Cover the first layer of potatoes with 1/2 of the onions. Cover the onions with 1/3 of the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat the layering until all of the potatoes and onions are used. Place the pan in the oven and cook for 10 to 12 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown. Remove the pan from the oven.
• Using a spatula, gently lift the potatoes out of the pan and place on a platter. Garnish with parsley.
