Garlic Potatoes (Dauphiniose)

You would be forgiven for thinking that the hardest thing about this recipe is the sauce, because after all the flavour of this dish is all about the sauce.

However I think it is also in fact all about the potato, they have to be boiled to the right stage before going into the oven.

If they are under cooked no amount of baking will make them soft enough and if they are over cooked you will not be able to slice them.


So boil the potatoes until you can put a fork into them with just a little bit of resistance then follow my instructions for the sauce and you will have just the best garlic potatoes you have ever tasted.
