• 
  

•  DIRECTIONSIf you have oven, heat to 350 degrees. Skip this if you dont have oven. I Will explain how to do that on cooker or stove or coal-pot.
  
  1. Peel and cook the potatoes in water for ten minutes. Drain the water. Pour into a bowl to cool.
  
  2. In a pan, add the oil, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1/2 teaspoon garlic, chopped chives or onions,
• Salt and pepper. Add the potatoes and toss in the pan for like a minute and take it of the fire.
• 
  
• 3. Rub your meat/pork/fish/eggs with another 1 teaspoon thyme, 1teaspoon garlic and onion. Sprinkle with pepper and salt to taste.
• 
  
• 4. If you are using oven, place the roast on a tack in a shallow toasting pan and cook for 50minutes at 350degrees.
• 
  
• If you are using any other means of fire, put the direction number 2 on fire at a low heat and add the pork/meat/chicken/eggs and cook until tender. 
• 
  
• 5. in the oven, arrange the potatoes around the roast and continue cooking until you know its cooked. But cook at 145degrees this time. Cover with foil.
• 
  
• If you are using any other means of fire, add the cooked potatoes to the directions on number 4 and cover with foil or fresh white napkin plus the cover of the pan. Lower the fire or take away coals if you are using  coal pot. Cook until tender, as desired.

You can add more onions, green pepper and chopped tomatoes to have a juicy taste. I did this and i loved it. 

• Take the food off the oven or fire and let it settle for 15minutes before slicing the potatoes to serve.
