Hi! This was an exceptional potato dish! I served it with halibut and it was just fantastic. We did use the extra dill and paprika on top and I'm glad we did. Next time I might reduce the flour down to 1 tablespoon and see if it makes for a silkier sauce -- but it's hard to tamper with perfection! Thanks so much for posting this recipe. Dianne

Delicate - Different - Delightful Unlike scalloped potatoes, the thick sauce stays mostly on top allowing the potato flavor to dominate. I microwaved 2 very large baking potatoes, covered, in 1 inch of water for 6 minutes each side. I sprinkled the sauce with paprika and extra dill before baking. Next time I would soften the sauce a bit with an extra 1/4 cup of milk because baking potatoes are drier than other varieties. A lovely subtle side dish. Thanks marie and welcome to Zaar.

Great flavors but it was a little rich for me. I used skim milk and also used red potatoes, diced them, leaving the skin on and then boiled them. I think leaving the skin on gave the dish a good additional texture. Thank you for posting!

A lovely dish, perfect with any meal. We had it with pork chops and it was such a nice combination. Will definitely make this again, tasty!
