Heading into spring, Gratin Dauphinois is always the best last-minute side dish. Patricia Wells does it best.

Love Gratin potatoes. Look forward to preparing this gourmet recipe.
Thanks Una! Going to give it a go…Serving 10 people… Should I double or triple the ingredients?

THIS WAS SO GOOD! Made it for a small Christmas dinner with just four people and it was gone in minutes. Will hands down make this again. Thank you Una!
