Sauteed Potatoes Recipe

Cut the green onions into 1/2-inch lengths, including the tender green tops. Toss in a bowl with the savory. Set aside.

Peel only the Yukon gold potatoes. Then slice all the potatoes 1/8 inch thick.

Melt the butter and oil in a heavy skillet (cast iron is best) over high heat. Add, alternately, potatoes and green onion mixture to the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper as you go.

Cook until an even brown crust forms on the bottom, 8-10 minutes. Turn. Add more oil, if necessary, and/or reduce the heat to keep the potatoes from burning. Again, cook until evenly browned on the bottom, about 5 minutes for this side. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low, and let them cook about 10 more minutes, until they are almost tender.

Now give the potatoes your undivided attention for the last 5 minutes. Uncover, adjust the heat again to medium-high. Turn the potatoes often until they are cooked through.

Taste, add more salt and pepper, if need be. Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve. Makes 6 servings.


Make-ahead step:
Slice the potatoes and place them in a bowl of ice water for up to 4 hours before cooking them. (This keeps them from turning brown.) Drain, dry with paper towels, and cook as above.
