This rich and creamy potato gratin is best soon after baking. It does have to sit 15 minutes after coming out of the oven, (not included in cook time) so, I usually throw a salad together while Bryan grills a steak, and it's an easy yummy supper!

Got my FIVE! Sounds delicious, Sparrow! ;')


Interesting! I joined Comfort foods yesterday. Then woke up this morning thinking of dinner tonight (Friday). Was thinking of a thick grilled steak with a hot potato dish with mustard -NO KIDDING!! But, i didn't want a potato salad. Might just be the one we make tonight. Thanks for the post. 5


Sounds great, never thought of using chicken broth paired with cream. Will try soon.
