Honestly, do Scalloped Potatoes need any explanation?!
I loved when my mother would serve them with dinner ~ they have always been one of my favorite ways of enjoying potatoes.
Here they are, ready for the oven.
And after baking, hot, bubbling and browned.
I served them along with baked Chicken Breasts wrapped in Prosciutto & Sage on a bed of wilted baby spinach.
A delicious dinner on a wet, stormy evening.
Happy Foodie Friday for those who are participating.

ReplyDeleteMary great pics:) It's so funny I just bought 6 little knock offs of your Staubs:)To make Sortilège crème brulée for my friends.
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful, and I love your ramekins. I'm going over to get the recipe. Thanks. laurie
ReplyDeleteI love all varieties of scalloped potatoes. Creamy ones, peppery ones, cheesy ones. Oh yes I love me some scalloped potatoes.
ReplyDeleteMari, Your photos are delicious and your potatoes are fabulous in those ramakins! I love to have people over for dinner and serving these would be perfect. Thanks for the recipe and the beautiful pictures.

Scalloped potatoes never need an explanation! These one-dish wonders look fabulous! Love it.
ReplyDeleteThese look so delicious! I am going to have to make some as I have potatoes.
ReplyDeleteits always home cooking or baking at its finest here!

Mari, have I told you how much I covet both your cooking & photography skills? Lord, Woman.....you make my mouth water every time I open a single post of yours. I want to run right out to the grocery store & try to duplicate whatever it is you're serving.
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFULLY done....both the food & the pictures. :-)

Oh My Goodness...these look fantastic. I'm going to try this for dinner tonight. Great idea for individual portions.
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious and so pretty in the individual servings.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of individual servings. What a GREAT!!! recipe.
ReplyDeleteGeri
Oh I would love a bite right now....
ReplyDeletebut more than the potatoes I am seriously coveting your little baking dishes...
Gorgeous!

These look so good! Thanks for sharing your recipe. I plan to try it soon.
ReplyDeleteI am running out tomorrow to look for cute little individual gratin dishes and it is entirely your fault.
ReplyDeleteOh, Mari, these look so creamy good! Scalloped potatoes are such a silky luxury, one I do not think to make too often. I shall have to make these again. Your photo is gorgeous and so tempting. I want to stab a fork at your gorgeous potatoes.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of making this in individual portions. Perfect! I'll be making this soon. I LOVE potatoes! ;D
ReplyDeleteHi Mari,
ReplyDeleteOhh so that's how you portion control scalloped potatoes lol. If I eat three little dishes of them is this still portion control?
It should be. They look wonderful.
Laura
Well doesn't that just look delightful! Thanks for sharing. I actually just picked up some ramekins at Cost Plus that would be perfect for this!
ReplyDeleteI am with you...do scalloped potatoes need an explanation? No! Your pictures say it all and I am ready to dig in!
ReplyDeleteMy mother always made these wonderful potatoes when she baked a ham. They are a favorite here. And individual servings are especially nice.
ReplyDeleteWhat to say that hasn't been said already? What compliment hasn't been given? Potatoes, creaminess, golden brown topping... I'm not sure I could stop at one individual serving.
ReplyDeleteYou know this is one of my weaknesses;-)) And I have no willpower! Love the individual servings, but how do I go back into the main dish and take "just one more bite?"
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pics!
Thanks...Diane
love the individual portions...much prettier and everyone gets equal share :)) the potatoes look delicious!
ReplyDeleteThat looks and sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious! Congrats on making Tastespotting!
ReplyDeleteMy mouth is watering. Scalloped potatoes are so good!!
ReplyDeleteI have the same cute little gratin dish from Staub. Check out my version at http://www.phamfatale.com/id_33/title_Gratin-Dauphinois-Scalloped-Potatoes/
This is so timely. I just finished The Lost Art of Gratitude by A.M. Smith, an Isabel Dalhousie novel. Potatoes Dauphinois play quite a prominent role in the novel. I wasn't quite sure what they were; now I know. A delightful read and a delightful sounding dish.
ReplyDeleteMmmm, these look amazing! I just got some individual sized baking dishes, so I will have to try this out! :)
ReplyDeleteThese potatoes look absolutely amazing! My mouth watered as I looked at your pictures! :)
ReplyDeleteI am sad about the portion control....looks like I will need second helpings!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy nanny used to make these for me when I was little. What a blast from the past, I cannot wait to try making them myself.
