Potato Gratin

Like a good Irish girl, I always eat my potatoes. Cover them with garlic infused cream, thyme, and a little cheese and I’ll lick the dish clean. I was so excited to try these potatoes that I just snapped a quick photo with my phone instead of going through a real set up. I’m regretting that now because you don’t get to see the true loveliness of this dish.photo Potato GratinI made these potatoes as part of a nice square meal last week. Really, I made a regular dinner- meat, potato, green vegetable. On a week night too. Dorie’s new cookbook is good enough to make me eat non desserts for dinner at least one night a week. Find the potato gratin recipe when you buy the book.
