My BH found this as an "easy" Au Gratin recipe to work with a nice (but a bit of work) pork tenderloin. I love to "tweek" recipes so I had a lot of fun with this one. I followed the basics, milk, cream, salt, etc. but instead of using regular cheddar cheese, I combined sharp cheddar along with mild chedder, heavy on the sharp (2 ½ cups total-both). I also increased the Parmesan to 1/4 cup and used fresh grated (what a difference!). I didn't heat the milk or precook the potatoes (used 4 large), instead I layered the potatoes with cheese/milk inbetween, seasoned as well. Covered and baked one hour. Then took cover off and baked an additional 1/2 hour. A bit more time, but saved a step. We loved them and the ease of it. Even my young son liked them and he's not a potato-person. Thanks so much for an easy recipe for great Au Gratins.
