Baking potatoes (as many as you want)
1 tablespoon of butter per potato, melted
Salt, pepper, basil, marjoram or other spices
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel potatoes and cut each potato crosswise into 1/4 inch slices, being careful to cut each slice only 3/4 of the way through the potato. Place in baking pan with the sliced side up. Pour all the butter equally over each potato. Sprinkle with spices. Bake 1 hour or until potatoes are golden and slices are fanned out, occasionally brushing potatoes with butter in pan.
