Ingredients

  • 9 lbs. (4kg) potatoes, peeled, yukon gold or russet
  • 12 oz. (350g) melted unsalted butter or 11 oz. (311g) duck fat
  • 3 teaspoons Maldon sea salt flakes preferred or salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 teaspoons chopped rosemary or oregano

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (207°C).
  • Using a Mandoline Slicer, thinly slice the peeled potatoes length ways. Pat dry the potatoes with paper towels.
    Sliced potatoes
  • Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl. Using your hands, toss with butter (or duck fat), 2 teaspoons salt, black pepper and about 2 teaspoons of chopped rosemary until fully coated.
  • Carefully place the potatoes upright, from left to right, in a baking tray (I used a 8x11" (20x28cm) baking tray) until the tray is full. Do not pack in the potatoes too tightly, as this impacts the crispiness.
  • Bake for an hour, or until the potatoes are golden and crispy. Garnish with the remaining salt and the rosemary or oregano. Serve immediately.
