Dauphinoise potatoes. Not for diet days! So indulgent and oh-so-worth-it. They go well with any kind of roast and are straight forward to make.
You will need (enough for 4-6):
1Kg Maris Piper potatoes
500ml double cream
2 large garlic cloves, crushed
salt
pepper
Pre-heat your oven to 160 degrees C (fan-assisted). Peel your potatoes and thinly slice them. Put a layer into an oven proof dish then add some garlice and salt and pepper. Carry on until you have layered all the potatoes up with the garlic and seasoning. Push down firmly. Pour over the cream and put into the oven. Bake for about 1 and a half hours but check them after an hour. The worst thing you could do is under cook this dish. I have done this once before and it was a disaster!
Perfect on a drizzly day (which seems to be the norm in Devon at the moment)....not so great for bikini bodies.
