Ingredients

2 ounces clarified butter (ghee)

2 cups grated peeled russet potato (from about 1 pound potatoes; use the large holes on a box grater)

6 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped 

1 clove garlic, grated 

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 

Directions

  1. In a 10-inch nonstick pan, heat the clarified butter over medium-high heat.
  2. Mix together the grated potato, thyme and garlic in a bowl. Add to the pan of hot butter and spread evenly, about the thickness of a pancake. Reduce the heat to medium and allow to cook until crispy and deeply golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Flip the potato cake over and continue to cook on the other side, about another 5 minutes. Drain on a rack, then cut into sixths and serve.

Who knew my technique for smothered hash browns was a riff off this technique. I've adopted the timing and some of the seasonings from this recipe for my own and now get much more consistent results.
