Ingredients

  • 3 pounds large Yukon gold potatoes (about 7)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Special equimpent: A four-sided grater; 10-inch well-seasoned cast-iron skillet or 12-inch deep nonstick skillet

Instructions

  1. Cover potatoes generously with well-salted cold water in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer potatoes, partially covered, until they are just barely tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  2. Transfer potatoes to a colander using a slotted spoon, rinse under cold water to stop the cooking, and dry.
  3. Chill potatoes on a plate, uncovered, at least 8 hours.
  4. Peel potatoes and coarsely grate into a large bowl. Add thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper, then drizzle with 2 tablespoons butter and toss mixture well.
  5. Heat oven to 375 °F with rack in middle.
  6. Heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter in skillet over medium-high heat until foam subsides, then add potato mixture and tamp it down firmly in skillet with a rubber spatula, smoothing the top.
  7. Reduce heat to medium and cook potato cake, covered with a lid, until edges begin to turn golden, about 5 minutes.
  8. Remove lid, then bake potato cake, uncovered, 10 minutes.
  9. Brush top of potato cake with remaining 2 tablespoons butter.
  10. Turn on broiler and broil potato cake, 4 to 5 inches from heat, until golden brown, 3 to 7 minutes.
  11. Remove skillet from oven carefully (wear oven mitts!). Run the rubber spatula around the edge of the cake to loosen it from the skillet.
  12. Invert a large round heat-proof plate over skillet and invert potato cake onto plate.
  13. Cut into wedges and serve.
