1 medium onion, thinly sliced

4 T. clarified unsalted butter

3 large Idaho or baking potatoes, peeled

1-1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp freshly ground pepper

 

Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Sauté sliced onions in 1 Tbsp butter until lightly golden brown. Reserve. Cut the potatoes into 1/8-inch slices. (Do not soak in water when sliced.) Immediately mix with the remaining 3 Tbsp butter, salt, and pepper. In a 10-inch nonstick baking pan, arrange half the potatoes in one layer. Cover with the sautéed onions and top with the remaining potatoes. Bake approximately 30 minutes, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy. If the underside of the potatoes is not browned when the potatoes are tender, finish over high heat on the stove top.
