Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 medium Yellow onions
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 2 teaspoons Fresh parsley
- 2.5 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil (optional)
Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the russet potatoes and yellow onions using a sharp knife or mandoline. Aim for 1/8-inch thick slices for even cooking.
Mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh parsley. Set aside.
Grease the inside of the crock pot with olive oil or a thin layer of butter to prevent sticking.
Layer the sliced potatoes and onions alternately in the crock pot, starting with a layer of potatoes. Lightly sprinkle each potato layer with minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme.
Dot the top layer with small pieces of unsalted butter for added richness.
Slowly pour the chicken or vegetable broth over the layers, ensuring the liquid reaches the edges and slightly covers the potatoes at the bottom of the crock pot.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to low heat. Cook for 5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the broth has mostly absorbed.
Once cooked, garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
Serve warm as a side dish alongside roasted meats, grilled fish, or a green salad.
