Here's a step by step guide to the Pommes Dauphinoise, made for serving at home.

There are three stages – you'll see that as usual – I would not want to disappoint – I've used the ever dependable foil tray which measures 23cm x 23cm.

I road tested this recipe when friends came for lunch too – serving with slow cooked gammon and various veggies.

I can give no better recommendation than my Husband's comment - “those potatoes were great ...”. H would never choose any “sauce” in a potato dish since he's not a lover of creamy consistencies – blimey! Just in case you should think there is any bias here – recipe requested from two friends.

You could add crispy bacon bits if you wished.

This dish forms part of our Christmas Day lunch – with roasties too – I shall report back on its success or failure.

By the way the leftovers are delish!

New Year perhaps?

P.s. Could I also mention that whilst I'm all for short cuts and making life easy there are certain rules that cannot be broken – one of which is always use block parmesan – I know it's an expensive ingredient but check out Lidl – their Parmigiano Reggiano is 40p per 200g block cheaper than other supermarkets.
