  2. 2 Cut off potato ends; stand potatoes on end and peel from top to bottom with a sharp knife to make each potato into a uniform cylinder. Cut each cylinder in half crosswise to make 6 potato cylinders, each about 2 inches long.
  3. 3 Place potatoes into a bowl of cold water for about 5 minutes to remove starch from the outsides.
  4. 4 Heat vegetable oil in a heavy oven-proof skillet over high heat until slightly shimmers.

  6. 6 Flip potatoes; repeat on other ends. Blot out oil from the skillet carefully using a paper towel held with tongs as they cook. Add butter and thyme sprigs to the skillet.
  7. 7 Paint butter over tops of potatoes with a thyme sprig using tongs. Cook until butter foams and foam turns from white to a pale tan color. Season with salt and black pepper. Pour chicken stock into the skillet.
  8. 8 Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven; cook until potatoes are tender and creamy inside, about 30 minutes. Add ¼ cup more stock if potatoes aren't tender and cook 10 minutes more.
