How to Make these Delicious Potatoes

I had a 2 liters of cream to use up so I set about making three cream recipes you can find that video here Homemade Sour Cream | Potato Bake | Eaton Mess Dessert

In the video, I also tell you some other ways you can change it up. If you don’t have cream I give you several other suggestions.

One of my favourite ways to eat potatoes is in a potato bake. With its rich creamy sauce, and garlicky goodness all topped with golden gooey cheese.

This is a quick and easy dish to throw together. The recipe is for a large portion which we ate over two nights of dinners! So it is also a time-saving dish. I haven’t tried freezing the potato bake before so maybe that is something I need to look into as well.

The ingredients are all pretty simple and you can add or take away anything you may not have. It is a very versatile recipe. For instance, if you don’t have the onion soup mix or similar product, that’s okay just leave it out. I have run out of chives. We are only just coming into spring now. I haven’t got any chives, so if you have them, add them to the mix.

Notes

I used to make this potato bake with evaporated milk if you don’t want to use cream.
Alternately you can use half and half or milk and cream.
