    So simple yet tasty. I added parmiggiano reggiano to the top and next time will add herbs, but this recipe is so good on its own.

    Such an easy, impressive recipe! My go-to potato dish for company! Made simpler by slicing potatoes into a bowl and tossing with s&p instead of adding between layers to each. (Easy to add in extras like thyme, cheese, etc etc etc!). If you are trying to decide whether or not to try this, do!! Note: it is important to make sure to use russet potatoes

    I've made them twice and they were awesome! I'm adding a little crumbled bacon between every two layers for an added twist! Thanks to whoever posted this originally!

    I found this a very easy recipe. Served last night at a small dinner party with friends attending at our house. These potatoes were a huge hit. I was asked to share the recipe and I did.
    Will make them again? You bet!

    Yum! These turned out great. As with the other reviewers, I sometimes add cheese, but I do it on each layer. But even without the cheese these are super easy to make.

    For a recipe with so few ingredients these potatoes are amazingly tasty and have become a family favourite. After making the recipe many times, we now add a little grated old white cheddar to the top of each one when they come out of the oven.

    Absolutely delicious and so easy to make. And using the muffin pan helps with portion control.

    Easy and unexpectedly good! I added a little shredded gruyere cheese on top.
