Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 1/2 pounds (about 10) Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and placed in cold water
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup clarified butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Shred the potatoes on the large holes of a box grater. Wrap the potatoes in a clean kitchen towel; squeeze out the liquid. Place in a medium bowl; toss with salt and pepper.
  • Heat half the butter in a 9- or 10-inch ovenproof nonstick sauté pan over medium-low heat. Spread the potatoes in the pan evenly; press down with a spatula to flatten the cake. Cook until the bottom is golden and turning crisp, about 18 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Invert the cake onto a plate; slide back into the pan. Return to heat, and spoon the remaining butter around the edges of the pan. Cook until the other side begins to get crisp, about 10 minutes, shaking the pan several times to loosen the cake.
  • Transfer to the oven until cooked through and tender in the center, about 12 minutes. Cut into wedges, and serve.
