My manbeast always accuses me of over seasoning things so I have to be very mindful about that. Looking at this recipe I thought some tarragon sure be would be nice. But I resisted and made exactly as posted but used a light hand with the nutmeg. The manbeast Dugan inhaled these potatoes and ate very little else of his dinner. And he had them for breakfast this morning. He is a happy boy and has threatened violence if I tamper with the recipe. And he hid my tarragon.

These were good, but I had to ask myself why they weren't a 5 star recipe like every other reviewer. I decided it was the nutmeg. We found it a little bitter sprinkled over each layer. We liked the microwave hint-that really sped the dish up.

This got the thumbs up from my son who would have to be the most finicky eater out. I made it exactly as the directions said, and I didn't get any spill over in the microwave, must have had the right dish.

I also halved this recipe. (There are just the two of us.) I cooked mine in the oven for the entire time. 40 minutes. Added cheese for the last 15 minutes. It was sooo good. DW really liked it. An easy recipe to follow. Next time, I will use the micro wave. A Real keeper of a recipe. Thank you for posting, Kooka. jim

I made this for the August-French Cuisine Photo Forum Event and I was excited to find a french recipe that could be used for Once A Month Cooking. I made this as directed, using cheddar for the cheese. I had to add a fair bit of slat and pepper as it seemed to be lacking in flavour somewhat. I froze the leftovers and we look forward to having them again soon. Thanks!

This is an excellent version of Dauphinois potatoes. I used a combination of white and orange sweet potato and guyere cheese. Excellent instructions and the flavour was fantastic! Thanks! PS> I also halved it as there are only two of us. We will eat the leftovers today!

I halved this recipe then followed the directions as written. It resulted in a very tasty side dish. I love it that pre-cooking it in the microwave cuts down on oven time. Thanks for posting your recipe Kookaburra!

This went down a treat. Instead of putting cheese on the top I sprinkled a but of dried parmesan cheese in between each layer instead on the nutmeg it was lovely. The microwave trick for making this is superb it cuts the time to make them down drastically.

I tried to be a good boy and obediently follow the admirably explicit instructions, but couldn't resist adding ultra thin-sliced onion and a sprinkle of parmigiano to each layer, making it I suppose a hybrid of Dauphinoise and Lyonnaise. Can you say 'sublime'? With a side salad, it's hearty enough to stand as a meal in itself.

These are great! The nutmeg is a great addition. Thanks!
