Can scalloped potatoes be made ahead?


To prepare ahead, bake them in the oven as normal, then keep covered in the fridge for up to a couple of days. Just reheat in the oven covered with baking paper or tin foil until piping hot.

What type of potatoes should you use to make scalloped potatoes?


This dish works with any type of potatoes. If you're not into potatoes, theycan be replaced with sweet potatoes,cauliflower orceleriac- just adjust the cooking time accordingly. You can peel the potatoes if you want, but I don't think keeping the skins on affects the texture at all. Plus, it's much easier and more nutritious that way!

    Can I use a dufferent nut as intolerant to cashews?

    Reply

    • Rhian Williams

      You can use soaked blanched almonds and add some extra water because almonds will need more water than cashews. Alternatively, I have a very similar recipe here, which doesn't use cashews: https://www.rhiansrecipes.com/vegan-potato-dauphinoise-gratin-gf/ let me know if you have any other questions!

      Yay thank you so much, really happy to hear that! Ah yes must've been the natural sweetness in the cashews and maybe the onions? Thank you for the feedback!

    How many potatoes do you think in terms of EACH using russet potatoes please?

    Reply

    • Rhian Williams

      Thank you! I'm sorry I can't give you an accurate quantity as russet potatoes can vary in size depending on the store and what country you live in! So it's best to go by weight!
