Potatoes Sarladaises - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 3 tablespoons bacon grease or 3 tablespoons clarified butter
4 large yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch discs
8 medium garlic cloves, sliced thin
1 cup water
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon chopped flat leaf parsley
freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Melt fat in a heavy 12\" skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add potato slices and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add garlic and cook until potatoes are well-browned, about another 6 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium low. Add 3/4 cup water and salt; cover tightly. Simmer until potatoes are cooked through; add more water if the pan gets dry before the potatoes are done. Potatoes are done when the point of knife slides in and out of the center of a slice easily without resistance. Add parsley, season to taste with pepper and more salt, and serve.
