Sauteed Potato Slices
4 small to medium-sized potatoes
2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
Herbs and seasonings to taste (see notes below)
Salt and pepper to taste
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Peel potatoes if desired. Cook in lightly salted
boiling water until just done, about 20 minutes depending on size of
potatoes. Drain. (This step can be done several hours ahead.
Refrigerate until use.)
Cut cooked potatoes into slices about 1/4-inch thick. Heat oil or
butter in fry pan over medium-high heat. Add potato slices and
seasonings. Saut� until hot and lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
Sprinkle with grated cheese and heat until slightly melted. Serve
immediately.
Notes: The herbs used in this dish are dependent upon taste and the
meal. Possibilities include, but are not limited to, garlic,
rosemary, parsley, thyme, sage, or marjoram. Try to use herbs that
will enhance the seasoning in the entree. If desired, the potatoes
may be placed under a broiler after adding the Parmesan cheese for a
crustier presentation.
