Roasted Potatoes

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
2. 2
   Slice potatoes as thinly as possible across length.
3. 3
   (We like to use a mandoline, although a food processor fitted with a 2-millimeter slicing blade will do just fine.)
4. 4
   Place potatoes in a large bowl, and rinse under cold running water, until water runs clear, about 5 minutes.
5. 5
   Drain and pat dry with paper towels.
6. 6
   Combine potatoes with butter, salt and pepper in a medium bowl.
7. 7
   Toss to coat.
8. 8
   Arrange potato slices in 2 or 3 layers on a medium jelly roll pan or baking sheet.
9. 9
   Bake 30 to 35 minutes, until the edges are golden brown.
10. 10
    Tip pan to drain off excess butter, cut into wedges, and serve immediately.
