Dauphinoise potatoes are best known for their rich, creamy texture and impressive layered appearance.<\/p>\n
Coined by the French, the term refers to a casserole of potatoes served with heavy cream and cheese, all of which are staple comfort foods loved by Britons.<\/p>\n
The classic dish can be paired with almost anything, though according to Mary Berry, it is best served with roasted meat.<\/p>\n
She said: “Dauphinoise potatoes make\u00a0a nice change with a Sunday lunch, especially\u00a0if\u00a0you are serving duck (try them with Duck breasts with cherry sauce), or\u00a0if\u00a0you are preparing a slighter smarter lunch than usual.”<\/p>\n
Her simple recipe requires just five ingredients and can be made days in advance, though she warned that the dish should be cooked “all at once” to prevent potatoes from turning brown after being sliced.<\/p>\n

Don’t miss… <\/strong> For the perfect dauphinoise, take time to preheat the oven to\u00a0220C, before greasing a 2-2.4l shallow, ovenproof dish with butter.<\/p>\n Then, slice the sweet potatoes and King Edwards very thinly using a sharp knife or the slicing blade on a processor.<\/p>\n Carefully arrange one layer of mixed potatoes in the buttered dish before seasoning with salt and pepper, then drizzle over a little cream and stock.<\/p>\n Continue to layer the potatoes, cream, and stock until all of the ingredients have been used.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

To serve, return to the oven without the foil for about 20-30 minutes, or until piping hot.” The dish can be frozen once cooked and fully cooled.<\/p>\n
