I wish I could take full credit for this recipe, but it was inspired by a chef I used to work with during my restaurant and in-home catering days. Every year, my whole family looks forward to this easy potato au gratin dish. They are a tasty alternative to mashed potatoes that is just as simple to make. I call these my Holiday Potatoes because I reserve making them for this time of year (because I cannot stop eating them)! This is a great go-to side for any gathering or dinner party. Usually, I serve them directly in the dish they bake in, but if you want to plate your guests' dinners, you can use a round cookie cutter to cut prettier individual servings. If I have several dishes to cook, I will make this one a day ahead of time since they keep in the fridge and reheat beautifully. A mandolin and garlic slicer will save you a lot of time prepping this dish, but if you don't have one, slice the potatoes as thin as you can.

La cuisineI love to cook. My kitchen is one of my happy places because I get to be creative there. Although I own many cookbooks, I most often throw meals together based on what I have on hand - so it is rare that I make a meal the same way every single time. I may follow a recipe initially, but tend to use them more as guideline and do my own thing. Most of what I make is based on classic home cooked meals that I had while living in France, and my love of market fresh produce. Although we are able to buy many items year round, I base meals on what is currently in season. My philosophy on food is to keep it fresh, colorful, and flavorful. I will be sharing various recipes that my family and I love on this page. In the meantime check out my Instagram stories for regular food posts! Archives
