Roasted Potato slices


Couple of days before Canadian Thanksgiving, the new Italian Supermarket posted this recipe on Instagram and I decided to make it.

It was a hit, not only did infusing the rosemary and garlic into the olive oil and butter, make the house smell wonderful, the dish was delicious and quickly disappeared. 






1/2 cup butter, 1/4 cup evoo, 4 cloves garlic, 1 sprig rosemary, salt and pepper. 


Combine on stovetop, medium heat. Cook til garlic is golden...Remove from heat. Toss sliced potatoes in mixture, then place in cast iron skillet. Bake at 350c for 1hr then crank up heat to 400c for 25 min. Baste potatoes throughout with butter mixture til golden brown!


I did use more olive oil in the mixture as did baste the potatoes frequently 


This picture also won me a spot with nine other Gastroposter in Calgary for dinner and interactive photography using ASUS's smartphone.  Their Zenphone is an android smartphone with the camera as their big feature, a little different from the iPhone, but certainly a wow factor in taking pictures in low light. This phone has two SIM cards and NO contact!  Not to mention the principles of adult education put into play as each one of us handled one of these Zenfones!  Great fun as we all had our own zenphone to use.. smart marketing!  Most of the group were bloggers and photographers!it was most interesting to see food bloggers all taking pictures as the food got cold!
