In a small saucepan over low heat melt butter with olive oil, garlic cloves and thyme. Cook until butter is melted, and the garlic is soft. About 3-4 minutes. Strain.

5

Brush the potatoes with half of the butter mixture. Sprinkle the potatoes generously with salt and pepper.

6

Bake the potatoes for 30 minutes, remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle with thyme or other herbs. Brush with the remaining butter. Bake for another 30 minutes or until potatoes are crispy on the edges.
