Fondant Potatoes

A steakhouse-worthy side that's easier than it looks: thick cylinders of Yukon Gold seared hard in a hot pan until deeply golden on both ends, basted with butter, garlic and thyme, then braised in the oven in vegetable broth until the insides turn creamy and meltingly tender. Crisp outside, almost buttery-soft within.
