Let cool completely, then slice into \u00bd-inch thick slices. Refrigerate until ready to do the second cooking. In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium high heat. When the butter has melted and the oil is hot, place the sliced potatoes in a single layer, sprinkle them with half the remaining salt and cook until golden, about 7 to 8 minutes. Turn, sprinkle with the remaining salt and cook the other side until golden, about 5 minutes.
