The name gratin dauphinois refers to the Dauphiné region of France, where this method of preparing potatoes is a specialty. Thinly sliced and layered potatoes and cream cooked in a buttered dish with finely minced garlic and some coarsely pounded black pepper.
This Potato Gratin Dauphinois would be perfect for a buffet supper or potluck and surely would be the first thing to disappear. The dish has very few ingredients but it is oozing with flavor.
Serve the Potato Gratin Dauphinois along with a Chickpea Orange Salad with Sun Dried Tomatoes and a Garlic Bread with Herb Butter Recipe for a party or a weeknight dinner.
