Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously butter a 2 1/2 qt casserole dish.

Step 2

Completely cover bottom of casserole dish with one layer of potatoes (overlapping slightly). Season with salt and pepper and 1 tsp fresh thyme.

If using a mandolin to slice the potatoes, please remember to use the food guard, for safety.
