2-3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
2 c. vegetable broth

How to make Rosemary Fondant Potatoes
Step 1: After peeling the potatoes, cut the ends off and slice them into about 1 ½-inch thick pieces. Using a paper towel, pat dries the pieces of potato to rid of the starch.
Step 2: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 450 degrees F.
Step 3: Heat the oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the potatoes into the skillet and fry them for approximately 5 to 7 minutes or until golden brown. As the potatoes fry, sprinkle them with some salt and pepper.
Step 4: Now, flip the potatoes and sprinkle again with salt and pepper. Try removing some of the oil from the skillet using a paper towel held with tongs. Add the butter to the skillet along with the rosemary sprigs, and garlic. Continue frying for an additional 3 to 4 minutes before pouring in the vegetable broth. Shift the skillet into the preheated oven.
Step 5: Bake the potatoes for approximately 30 to 35 minutes or until cooked through. If the potatoes are easily pierced using a fork, knife, or toothpick, they are done.
Step 6: Take the skillet from the oven. Serve the potatoes garnished with some fresh rosemary sprigs and drizzle with the rest of the liquid from the pan. Enjoy!
NOTES:
To make the gravy: Take the potatoes from the skillet and leave the drippings behind. Over medium heat, heat the liquid and sprinkle with a tbsp flour. Using a wire whisk, quickly stir the mixture until the flour is completely incorporated into the drippings. Let the drippings cook for a couple of minutes and gradually add in around half of the vegetable broth. Simmer the gravy until it thickened to your preferred consistency. If needed, season with salt and pepper.
