Cottage Fries - Easy Oven-Fried Potato Rounds

Ingredients:
| yukon or russet potato, sliced into 3/8-inch thick rounds | |
| enough olive oil to coat | |
| cayenne, salt, pepper, to taste | |
| fines herbes (like Herbes de Provence), to taste |
Directions:
Preheat oven to 450°. Place the sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water to rinse the starch off. Drain well and pat dry with paper towels to dry. Drizzle olive oil over potatoes, add spices and toss to coat. Line a baking sheet with foil or silpat and arrange the potatoes without overlapping. Sprinkle a bit of salt on top, if desired. Bake uncovered for 15 minutes. Turn; bake for another 15 minutes. Turn again, and bake for 15 minutes more. Repeat as needed until potatoes are a nice golden brown. (usually by 45 minutes, they will be done.)
