Sozzled Potatoes

Directions

1. 1
   Heat oven to 200C.
2. 2
   Peel the potatoes and finely slice crosswise.
3. 3
   Toss the potato slices in a bowl with the olive oil, sea salt and pepper.
4. 4
   Lightly oil a baking tray (or deep rimmed baking sheet) and scatter the potato loosely over the base.
5. 5
   Pour over the white wine and scatter with the thyme.
6. 6
   Bake for 30 minutes, during which time the wine will boil and bubble away, and the potatoes will crisp to a beautiful golden crunch.
7. 7
   Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes after the wine has evaporated, as they can over crisp.
8. 8
   The slices in the corners might get scorched, but it's worth the sacrifice.
9. 9
   Use a fish slice or spautla to lift the potatoes out of the pan, and serve hot.
