When I first discovered potatoes au gratin, I didn’t even know how to pronounce it (many would argue I still don’t, but according to the internet it’s “oh grah ton”). It was at a French restaurant that was known for its home-style meals, and at first bite I was hooked.
At the time, I had thought it was out of my reach. It was this fancy dish I ate at a restaurant, and I thought you absolutely needed an oven to make it. I lacked the skill and the oven to learn how to make this and so, for the longest time, it was simply one of those dishes that escaped my grasp.
But now, here I am on my slow cooker quest to make everything I love to eat using nothing but my slow cooker. Potatoes au gratin, we meet again, and this time it seems that I have prevailed!
