Fabulous dish. I followed the original recipe as written & it came out perfectly. I likely the par-boiling idea, it really cuts the oven cooking time & the potatoes melt in your mouth. We don't like real heavy dishes so we enjoyed the milk/broth mixture & used parmesan vs cheddar. The topping got crispy golden brown which only added to the scumptous flavours. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
