Potatoes Savoyard

Candy C's Note:

I was tired of baked, mashed, au gratin, and potatoes with onions so tried this. The beef broth gives it a wonderful flavor. Try it with different cheeses depending on what you have on hand!

• Prep Time: 15 mins

Directions:

1. Peel and slice potatoes, and cover with cold water until ready to use.

Very nice change for a potato dish. I wasn't sure if I was to put cheese on the top, so I did and it made it nice and crispy. I liked the Greek seasoning, it gave it a little different twist. Thanks, Carole in Orlando

I'm really enjoying scalloped potatoes made with broth vs milk. This is my 1st time using beef broth and it worked nicely. We cut the salt from 1 tsp to 3/4 tsp and still found it abit salty so next time I'll add only half and it should be perfect. I also added sliced red onion and switched the cheese to monterey.

Outstanding! To me, this recipe deserves more than 5 stars for its extraordinary flavors, and for its ease of preparation. I used Jarlsberg cheese and Swanson's low sodium beef broth, and wouldn't change any of its ingredients. By slicing half the potatoes and layering them in the pan, and then slicing the rest of the potatoes just before layering them, I found it unnecessary to soak the potatoes in water first. A 7x11x2 inch baking dish is just the right size for this recipe. The beef flavor is so satisfying, you don't even need to serve steak or roast beef with it. Broccoli and spinach both go well with this potato dish. Thank you so much for posting this, Candy C! Lynnie
