Fail safe dauphinois potato recipe

[rightkindofwrongg]

As per title please help me find a fool proof recipe for dauphinois! Thanks

I always use this one

https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/dauphinoise-potatoes

For two:
2 or 3 large spuds
Garlic purée
Quarter pint double cream
Quarter pint of milk
Salt and pepper.

Slice potatoes thinly. Layer in Pyrex casserole. Mix other ingredients and pour over the spuds. In microwave on high for five minutes then in oven with leg of lamb for 45 minutes until top brown.

I never bother to rinse the slices and have been making it this way for 30 years.

Nigella. She cooks the potato in the cream and milk in the pan and just finishes in the over. Much less faff and no risk of taking it out to find raw potato. www.nigella.com/recipes/creamy-potato-gratin

Nigella from me too!

I use Nigel Slaters purely because he puts his potato slices in " hugger mugger" which makes me smile every time. But you dont actually need a recipe. Thinly sliced potatoes, some garlic and a fuckton of butter and cream. Bake until gooey. I think this might be the dish I would request for my last meal on earth

Nigella’s is the best. I made it without cream and just semi skimmed milk with a bit of cheese on too the other day (in a potato dauphinois emergency) and it was still good.

I use Nigella's recipe too. It's fab except washing the pot!
