Pommes fondant

	Waxy potatoes
2 knobs	butter
	Demi glace
4 sprigs	thyme
2 cloves	garlic

Peel a couple potatoes and trim both sides. Then if the potato is big enough cut it in half. Now cut the slices with a round cutter. Keep the trimmings for another recipe. Submerge the rounds in water and rinse them till the water is clear. After that dry them on some kitchen paper. Then pour some oil in a frying pan and pan fry the potato rounds with some salt. Once golden on one side turn them around and add some knots of butter. Pan fry till both sides are nice and golden and keep turning them if necessary. Now add some demi glace till the potatoes are halfway submerged and also add 4 sprigs of thyme and 2 cloves of garlic that are cut in half. Now cover the potatoes with some parchment paper and let them cook on a medium low heat for around 10 to 15 minutes. Once they’re cooked gently turn them around, turn off the heat and let them cool down for another 10 minutes. Then transfer the pommes fondant on a tray and glace them with the demi glace we just cooked them in. Now they’re ready to be used. You can keep them covered in your fridge for a couple of days and reheat them in an oven at 150 degrees Celsius for around 5 minutes. Don’t forget to give them a quick glaze before serving them. They’re great with a beautiful duck breast, some green asparagus and a tarragon sauce.
