Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the potatoes and garlic in a 12-inch round casserole, at least 3 inches deep. Scatter the shallots, bay leaves, thyme, parsley and peppercorns over the top. Sprinkle with the salt and drizzle the olive oil evenly over the top. Pour in the chicken broth. Bake until the potatoes are tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
2. Turn the oven up to 450 degrees. Bake until most but not all of the liquid is absorbed, about 45 minutes longer. Discard the bay leaves and herbs. Serve, spooning a little of the remaining liquid over the top.
