  • “Did it again Bergy!!I microwaved the spuds, cooked the onions, put it together in the am and cooked it later that night.The onion and potato each had their flavours come through distinctly.Good veggie dish.”

  • “Very nice, simple dish, but I’m wondering if the milk is perhaps a tad too much. I had this pool of milk lying at the bottom of the dish even after baking. Is it supposed to be like that? Or is my oven really terrible? 🙂 I had to substitute thyme with oregano, and it tasted really wonderful!”

  • “Very tasty comfort food!I did not boil the potatoes at all.I sliced them very thin with my mandolin and layered with the sauteed onion/garlic mix, covered with parchment paper and popped in the oven for 45 minutes.I omitted the milk entirely.The caramelized onions made this dish!!”
