Light Potato Bake

"This is a 'Boulangere Potato" dish. It is thinly sliced potatoes baked with garlic and liquid stock. For a gluten-free diet ensure that the stock used is gluten free- I use Massell brand (it's also lactose free and suitable for vegans). A variation on the dish is after cooking sprinkle with some grated light cheese and grill or return to the oven until the cheese melts. Alternatively you can use sliced kumara or a mix of potato and kumara"

  1. This gets 4 stars because the family was split on it. I tripled the garlic and 2 of us liked the dish, while the other 2 still found it too bland. Nice, easy and healthy. Made for ZWT 7 - Food.Commandoes
     
  2. So easy and delicious! We added a couple pats of butter, knowing that Dr. Oz says you need some fat to satisfy! And satisfy this did! Loved it! Thanks, **Jubes**! Made for ZWT5, Kitchen Witches.
     
  3. Just goes to show vastly different perspectives - this was a keeper in my book, and also my BF's by special request. I asked him how it was, and he said is there more? I did take a hint from the last reviewer, and used a little more veggie broth and a little less potato. As a result, there was liquid left on the bottom of the dish which didn't bother me a bit. Might just go with the original recipe next time. Also, I did add about 1 oz. of low fat white cheddar at the end. Going into my favorites cookbook. Had an outstanding low fat dinner with this and recipe#338177:) Thanks so much Jubes!
     
  4. This is a good basic potato dish, though rather plain. I made it as written, except for adding extra broth and cooking it a little longer. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Made for ZWT 5 by one of the Cooks With Dirty Faces.
