Potatoes Au Gratin

or similar, I know its not a complicated dish but I would like a new recipe or some tips please, I'm often a bit disappointed with mine.Thank you.

Hi oli3, I have a delicious one which I think you will really enjoy. I shall find it on the potatoes thread and pop it here for you.

For those of you who love potatoes, how about adding some of your favourite potato recipes....it could be anything from a potato chocolate cake, to scalloped potatoes..what ever you like!
I will start the ball rolling with "Pam's Creamy Potatoes" which, I must say are very very tasty.

25g butter, melted;1 clove garlic,crushed;1/4 tsp nutmeg;2 cups grated tasty cheese; 1 kg potatoes,peeled and sliced thinly;2 eggs,lightly beaten;1x 300ml carton cream;1 cup milk;1/2 cup stale breadcrumbs;fresh herbs to garnish.
combine melted butter,garlic and nutmeg in a bowl. Brush a shallow oven proof dish with half the butter mixture. Sprinkle half the cheese over the base and layer the potato slices. Combine remaining butter mix, eggs, cream and milk in a jug and pour gently over potato slices. Sprinkle top with remaining cheese and breadcrumbs ( I dont usually bother with the breadcrumbs) Bake in hot oven - 200C for about 1 hour or until potatoes are tender. (Cover with foil if top becomes too brown.

Hi I just slice the potatoes and an onion, i layer them in a dish (well actually i'm lazy and i thrown them in and neatly arrange the top layer) and i sprinkle salt and pepper onto it. Then i add cream, how much depends on the dish etc but about 1/2 way up (usually 300ml) and i sprinkle the top with cheese and breadcrumbs. I cover with foil and cook till the potatoes are not hard and then uncover and toast up the top.
