Potato Pancake

This was the side dish that I served with Crispy Fish last night. It's very easy to make, but it's hard to get out of the skillet and still look pretty. I'll keep working on it! I used my mandoline to slice the potatoes and onion paper thin so they would crisp up and cook quickly. If you don't have a mandoline, cut them thinly with a knife and increase the cooking time.

2. Layer potato and onion slices in skillet. Drizzle with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Insert a few thyme sprigs into potato mixture.
3. Bake at 400° for 30 minutes. Invert onto a cutting board; cut into wedges.
