Saffron Fondant Potatoes
Ingredients
3 large baking potatoes
25g/1oz butter
1 pinch saffron
water or chicken stock
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 160C/325F/Gas3.
2. Cut the potatoes lengthways into 1½cm/½in thick slices. Cut out six 3cm/1¼in diameter discs using a plain pastry cutter.
3. Melt the butter in an ovenproof frying pan with a lid, add the potatoes, saffron and enough water or chicken stock to come a third of the way up the potatoes. Season, bring to the boil, put the lid on and place into the oven for 45 minutes (turn and baste occasionally).
