its great but this is Pommes Anna a famous preparation. In the cooks description she kind of tries to make it seem like she just invented it one day. Anyone take it that way?

I've read some of the reviews, and many complained that their potatoes didn't hold together when flipped. I specifically remember Alex saying to not rinse the potatoes off, because the starch helped to hold the cake together. I made the potato cakes today, but I added a couple of things, camelized onions in between the layers with romano cheese. I also used olive oil mixed with butter, instead of all butter. It held up really well and was delicious! Everyone who may have had troubles, try it again...Maybe that might help. :

Tasted great and was a pretty presentation at the table. Golden brown and held together nicely. I did not separate the butter solids though...went the lazy way and it was still great!

I made this last night for the first time and my family loved it. I followed the recipe explicitly; however, I did have a hard time clarifying the butter and I baked it in the oven 8 minutes longer of the first side. I think I may not have left in on the stove long enough to get the proper browned edges.

Yummy...thanks Alex for sharing this recipe with me!

Tried the recipe two ways...exactly as printed and then added olive oil to melted/clarified butter and replace thyme with roasted garlic...mashed. Bottom line...the recipe makes a delicious dish AND lends itself to variations. Thanks Alex. Annie, Fremont, CA

I just made this tonight. I skipped the thyme, and topped the finished wedges with a yogurt dill sauce. It was beautiful! I broiled the top slightly instead of flipping it. It came out perfectly!
