I've never made a proper gratin dauphinoise before, always wanted to - all that cream and potato, yum. <br /><br />We don't eat that many potatoes either - they go green SO fast that I just can't be bothered to keep them around.hungryandfrozenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01077401868108124070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-16169411442376788252010-08-22T09:35:05.103+01:002010-08-22T09:35:05.103+01:00Jude - Nigella's recipe doesn't replace yo...Jude - Nigella's recipe doesn't replace your/Diana Henry's thighs!<br /><br />Rebecca - thank you!<br /><br />Jo - well, it was a Saturday night not midweek!Alicia Foodycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931796992646884249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-26223260053107339962010-08-22T09:14:06.464+01:002010-08-22T09:14:06.464+01:00I always wonder who might eat things like "w...I always wonder who might eat things like "wild boar fillet with homemade gnocchi" for a weekday dinner, but it shouldn't surprise me that it is you!
