Directions

Prep 10 minCook 40 min

1
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400F.
2
Melt butter in cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over low heat. Remove from heat and pour into a large bowl. Do not wipe skillet.
3
Mix salt and pepper in a small bowl. Peel potatoes and, working over bowl of butter, cut crosswise into 1/16-inch-thick slices, letting them fall into butter, then toss to coat.
4
Arrange one third of potatoes in 1 layer in skillet in overlapping concentric circles. Sprinkle with one third of salt mixture, then make 2 more layers of potatoes in same manner, seasoning each layer with one third of salt mixture. If there is any butter remaining in bowl, scrape onto potatoes.
5
Cook potatoes over moderate heat 15 minutes. Press down on potatoes with a wide metal spatula, then cover surface with parchment paper and cover skillet with foil.
6
Bake until outside edge is golden brown and potatoes in center are tender when pierced with a fork, about 25 minutes. Let stand, covered, at room temperature 5 minutes, then carefully loosen edge with a heatproof flexible spatula. Invert a plate with a rim over skillet. Using pot holders and holding plate and skillet together firmly, invert skillet. Remove skillet and sprinkle potato cake with parsley and garlic.
