Potato gratin the French way is not only quickly made, but also indescribably delicious! In addition, potato gratin keeps you full for a long time - this is due to the long-chain carbohydrates which the body can only digest slowly.

Depending on the oven, the cooking time for a potato casserole may vary slightly. It is best to prick the potatoes with a knife or fork and check whether they are already tender.
