Directions

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.

Melt half the butter with the olive oil in a saute pan, and gently fry the onions until soft and lightly golden, about 15 minutes. Spread half the onions in the bottom of a casserole. Lay a layer of sliced potatoes on top, season with salt and pepper, and scatter with thyme leaves. Build another layer of onions, then a final one of potatoes, and finally pour over the stock. Cover the pan with foil, and bake until all the liquid has been absorbed, 2 to 3 hours, removing the foil for the last hour if you like a crisp top.

    This is an amazingly simple dish to make and will impress everyone who trys it. It has a wonderful depth of flavor from just a few ingredients. I followed the directions without any changes and it turned out beautifully.

    This has a wonderful taste. Followed the recipe exactly and there was a lot of stock left when done. Could not have cooked it longer because we would have had mashed potatoes. Will make it again but only use 1/2 the stock.
