Rinse the potatoes after slicing them to get ride of excess starch. Place sliced potatoes on a baking sheet slices up, then drizzle top with oil, sea salt and pepper. perhaps small slices of garlic as well. [Optional: Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle Romano cheese and bread crumbs and season with a little more salt and pepper to taste. Return to the oven, and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until nicely browned.] Bake for 50 minutes. (Time may vary depending on size of potato and oven.) When they're done you can add some shredded cheese, green onion or any other topping you might like!
