The bugs got to my rosemary so I had to make this with the home dried variety. The flavors were just wonderful. I used about 1 tablespoon of oil dizzled between the layers of potatoes and onion and found it got a tad dry towards the end. Rather than add more oil, I just added a tablespoon of water which did the trick. The onion carmelized and the potatoes were tender with crispy brown edges. Sometimes the best recipes are just so for their wonderful simplicity in preparation and flavors. This certainly is one of those dishes.

We really enjoyed this, adding chopped garlic to the middle layer and cracked black pepper to all. I found it took more like an hour to cook at the heat given. I will make it again, because it is so simple and such a nice change from creamy scalloped potatoes.

How can something SO delicious be SO low in fat? I added generous quantities of chopped garlic, 8 cloves in all, with each layer of onions and because I didn’t want to add more oil – and didn’t want it to dry out as some reviewers had experienced – I used the juice of half a lemon and added some oil and some lemon juice to each layer. And I cooked it for more like 45 minutes. Just fabulous. It was also tasty – though naturally it had lost its crispness – reheated in the microwave for lunch. I took it to my parents’ place next day, and reheated gently in a slow oven, covered with foil until the last 10 minutes, it was just as good as when first made. I’ll be making this recipe again! Thank you so much for sharing it, Lori!

Easy and very tasty side dish! I'd sliced my potatoes thin before I read the instructions, but it seemed to work well anyway! Next time I'd add fresh minced garlic between the layers too - this is a very good dish to throw in the oven with a roast!

I have to confess I prepared this in the microwave. =) I thinly sliced the potatoes and onions and added fresh garlic and cracked pepper to the layers along with the rosemary (no salt). I then drizzled it with just a bit of olive oil and covered it tightly with plastic wrap. 20 minutes later I had a wonderful side dish. Thanks Lauralie41 for a recipe I will use again.

We loved it. I didn't have any rosemary so I seasoned it with season salt and oregano and garlic powder, salt and pepper. It turn out great.

I really like these, but DH wasn't crazy about them. Will have to give them to him again, adding garlic. Sometimes he surprises me with the things he doesn't like. I will definitely make this again, even if it means eating it all alone.

These are really good, but they definitely need more cooking time. This is a very nice accompaniment to a roast.
