When planning for a dinner party it’s important to make sure that whatever you are serving matches or has a progression. This recipe for roasted potato towers, although not complicated in terms of flavor profile, make a really appetizing side dish and pairs well with meats, pasta, and even some seafood dishes like scallops!
INGREDIENTS:
Makes 6 Servings
4-5 Yukon Potatoes - thinly sliced (about 1/8 inch thick)
7 TBSP Butter - melted
1 TBSP of Fresh Thyme - removed from stems
Coarse Salt and Cracked Pepper (to taste)
Goat Cheese

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat the over to 350 degrees.
Place the cut up potato slices into a large the bowl. Add the butter, thyme, salt, and pepper and mix together so the potatoes are well coated.
Take a muffin tray and butter the tray. In a circular motion start to stack the potatoes into tower form. TIP: Use the smaller pieces at the bottom of the muffin tray and the larger slices at the top.
Cover the tray with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes take the cupcake tray out of the oven and turn the heat up to 450.
Next, we are going to flip the potato towers, aluminum foil and all, over onto a baking tray and remove the muffin tray. When you have successfully completed this step and fixed your towers so they stand up straight again (don’t worry it happens to all of us) place the tray back into the oven for an additional 15 minutes until they cook and become more crispy.
When they are nice and crispy take them out of the oven and add a dollop of goat cheese to the top (or if you want them to be really pretty pipe goat cheese onto them with an icing piper!), followed by a small piece of thyme for garnish.
Serve while hot!
Enjoy!
