How to Make Cheesy Sage Potatoes
Here's how to make Kia Damon's crispy sage potatoes.
Step 1: Slice your potatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Butter casserole dish or coat with nonstick spray and set aside. Rinse potatoes and pat dry. Cut about ¼-inch off the tip of the potatoes to get started, then angle the mandoline into the mixing bowl and slice into ⅛-inch rounds.
Step 2: Season and stack
Finely chop sage and thyme then add to the potatoes in the mixing bowl along with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly coated. Pack the potatoes close together–like a can of Pringles chips on its side—until they fill the dish. You should be able to see a sliver of each potato layer. Pour the chicken stock over the layered potatoes until it fills in all the crevices. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and a few cracks of pepper, then place in the middle rack of the oven. Cook for 50 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the liquid has reduced.
A mandoline slicer is the key to perfectly thin, uniform slices.
Step 3: Add cheese and serve
Once the potatoes have cooked, sprinkle the grated parmesan over the top and cook for another 3 minutes. Finish with some flaky salt and a drizzle of good olive oil. Serve immediately.
