I’m French & it’s called “Un Gratin Dauphinois”! 🥰 Lovely recipe. Usually we pre-cook the potatoes in milk and then transfer into the oven! Adding some nutmeg would be delicious too 😊

[@Crybaby-cz8et]

Thanks, I was just about to ask if its the same as dauphinois. I always see dauphinois in Masterchef UK

[@username00009]

Thank you for this comment! I’ve been wanting to work my way through Mastering the Art of French Cooking, and now I can start with this dish because I was already planning to make scalloped potatoes. Julia’s recipe only calls for pouring boiling milk over the potatoes before putting them in the oven; I’m guessing that’s so one can achieve a more fancy, rather than rustic, presentation. Oddly enough, her recipe seems easier than Natasha’s, who has become my go-to recipe source over the past 18 months.

[@tannenbaumgirl3100]

You don't want to boil anything in just milk.

[@MsCrazycatlady]

How much nutmeg?

[@davidchristian2368]

Negative on the nutmeg

[@superdrunk7766]

Regardless of what language used to describe the recipe, this lady clearly offers the best recipe , together with that pleasant personality and truthful preference for what is liked . Highly recommended 👍.

[@Natashaskitchen]

thank you!

[@sarahmigiro]

Weird mechanical moves...we ain't children

[@Yamp44]

Gratin refers to the toasted cheese crust over a dish, or a dish where the gratin is the star like potato gratin or cauliflower au gratin. The French verb "gratiner" means to broil cheese to get it golden and somewhat crisp. It can also be used when you have a dish smothered with béchamel sauce that you place under a broiler to get golden too, but it usually involves cheese. And cheese is always better. Cheese is the best, I'm with you on this! :D It's really hard to explain how to pronounce gratin to a non-French speaker, because the sound "in" in French is basically a vowel sound. The combination of an "n" with a vowel in French usually (but not always because French is overly complicated) transforms the combination into a new vowel-sound without equivalent in English. So yeah, just pronouce it like you do in the video, you're just as close as it gets. :) As for Gruyère, you're bang on. I would say to someone who isn't sure to pronounce it like grue-yair, as you do. Enough with the French lesson! This recipe looks absolutely scrumptious, and I'm gonna try it for sure. Thanks for all those gorgeous recipe you share with us, and have a nice Veteran's day.

I love potatoes! The potato recipe ,my mother used, didn’t call for cheese but onions. It was delicious! Thank you

[@jonscrivner9087]

I like the idea of no cheese. I think the milk, butter, and cream is enough with onion. Also, onion options could include shallots, or green or red onions. By skipping the cream one would lighten the dish if desired. Finally, adding nutmeg like you would pepper, is the finishing touch to the flavor. Thanks for sharing your story.

[@anastasiamathura5401]

[@loudimaggio]

This recipe is excellent. The first time I made it, it came out perfect. Everyone loves it. Cannot recommend more highly. I used a mandoline to slice the potatoes. Whatever you use make sure the potatoes are sliced thin (1/8 in.) and evenly. They'll cook through and through. Thank you Natasha!

Hello Yvette can I ask you a question?

[@richardernst3502]

Can't wait to make this. I haven't made a sauce like this before. Gruyere is a great idea and bet so so delicious. I have always used a knife and mandolin to get thin slices but the food processor looks like a great way to do this and with the adjustable slice thickness as a bonus. It looks like the food processor is sharky's favorite also. He hated you putting it away.

[@baidaan1894]

Gratin of potatoes or potatoes in gratin. Not AU gratin potatoes. Au = at the. Gratin refers to the crust created on the top of the dish when it’s cooked. The crust is the gratin. Scalloped refers to the fact that a dish is cooked in sauce with breadcrumbs on top. I often hear « sautéed » too in cooking channels… ÉE in French is a past participle for feminine singular words. Adding a d is putting an English past participle on a French word already put in its past participle. Sautées potatoes: É (past participle) + E (feminine) + S (plural) Sautés mushrooms: no E because mushroom is a masculine word. Et voilà 😉
