I have an old Hitachi Cat shite Green rice cooker. Peel your potatoes and slice them about 3/8" thick. Spray the btm of the rice cooker with some Pam. Add about 1/4 stick of butter (sliced into small pats) layer of potatoes, season them, (I use creole seasoning, salt, pepper, granulated garlic and onion) another 1/4 stick butter, another layer of potatoes.... till you run out. Add about a cup of either water, chicken or beef stock. Put the lid on and hit cook. Stir about halfway through. When they bell rings stir them again, then hit the cook bottom again. It will only take about 3-4 minutes this time. They dont get crusty but they do get brown. We usually cook about 2-2.5 lbs and use up a stick of butter. Serves a family 4 with a little bit leftover for my lunch.

I love smothered potatoes. Made just like you describe. Now I’m hungry.

I actually cooked some yesterday for lunch.
Not the Lenten version, I added sliced smoked sausage.
I do remember my mom making the Lenten version.
So simple and yet so good.

Damn, no wonder they're good. I think I'm gonna stick to my cast iron pan and splash of oil flavored with a flick of bacon grease.

Y'all know everyone on this thread sharing these oh so specific food traditions is likely fourth or fifth cousins, right? LOL. No six degrees of separation on the bayou, more like 2 or three.
