I tried this earlier, was lovely! However, were you supposed to par-boil the potatoes first? they were quite hard!
nope you dont need to parboil the potatoes, the only thing I can think is that it either wasn’t baked for long enough or the potatoes where sliced too thickly.
IN THE OVEN! I didn’t have any mozzarella. I was generous with the Romano and Parmesan sooooo… fingers crossed!
I do not like Parmesan cheese I find it too strong. Is there anything I can replace it with? Thanks
You can use cheddar instead if you prefer. 🙂
What would you suggest serving with this? Thanks
Hi Natalie, I usually serve it as a side with a protein-based dish – a chicken based dish would be perfect. http://www.slimmingeats.com/blog/category/recipes/by-ingredient/poultry
would this freeze.?
Hi Karen, yes this will freeze fine.
Hi, could you use Creme fraiche in this?
I am sure you can, I haven’t personally tested, just ensure you count the syns as creme fraiche is not free.
I have made this twice now and it is delicious, the only thing I am going to change next time I cook it is that I will cook it for longer as even though the potatoes were cooked we felt it’s as not quite there, so I am going to cook for 45mins covered in foil then uncover, put cheese on and cook for 30 mins more. I will let you know my results.
