Ingredients:
750 g potatoes
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
250 ml dry white wine
1 tablespoon fresh thyme sprigs
Directions:
Heat oven to 200 C.
Peel the potatoes and finely slice crosswise.
Toss the potato slices in a bowl with the olive oil, sea salt and pepper.
Lightly oil a baking tray (or deep rimmed baking sheet) and scatter the potato loosely over the base.
Pour over the white wine and scatter with the thyme.
Bake for 30 minutes, during which time the wine will boil and bubble away, and the potatoes will crisp to a beautiful golden crunch.
Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes after the wine has evaporated, as they can over crisp.
The slices in the corners might get scorched, but it’s worth the sacrifice.
Use a fish slice or spautla to lift the potatoes out of the pan, and serve hot.
