There are two main methods for cooking melting potatoes. The most popular method uses a 500 F oven and three-quarter to one-inch slices. They are roasted for 45 minutes, flipping the pieces every 15 minutes.  On the third flip, chicken broth is poured into the pan along with garlic and fresh spices.  Then, everything goes back into the oven for another 15 minutes. The second method involves searing one-half inch sliced pieces of potato in a skillet, then transferring them to a metal pan where the chicken broth, garlic, and fresh spices are added.  Then, they are roasted for 30 minutes at 400 F.
