This wasn't great but wasn't bad either. A lot of calories for very little flavour. I would add the garlic raw to the cream as browning it didn't enhance the flavour at all.

This was good, but for so many calories, I expected something more stupendous.

delicious and very filling. I used a mix of cheddar and mozza cheese instead of gouda, and it went over well at suppertime.

These looked yucky, but tasted pretty good. I'm not sure what happened, but the saucey stuff got chunky and seperated from the potatoes.. There's probably better recipes out there for au gratin potatoes.

Really not much flavor. I couldn't even taste the garlic. It needs something else to make it great. I'll try to add things to this starter dish.

I made this with just a couple of changes... I didn't have any Gouda, but I DID have some pepper jack. I omitted the garlic - nothing against garlic, I just didn't think it would go well with the pepper jack. I tossed the cheese into the cream, added some smoked turkey stock, and stirred until the cheese was melted, THEN poured it onto the potatoes. Melting the cheese into a sauce might help others who were having problems with separation. My husband absolutely loved this, and it made excellent leftovers the next morning to go with scrambled eggs & sourdough toast. YUM!

I am a cheese cheese cheese lover and that's all I needed to add a wee bit more of to make this dish a 5* for me. This is an excellent potatoe side dish and so very easy to make.

Very good. I used smoked cheese (with a little leftover colby) and halved the recipe (except for the garlic -- I like garlic). I also used soy milk instead of cream. Worked well, and the leftovers didn't separate.

This is a great recipe! The only change I would make is to use less garlic - and I love garlic. Had no problems with sepration when re-heating. Will make these again and again! Great with pork.

These are essentially the same as a recipe my husband got at a short stint at chef school. We use Parmesan, though the original calls for Gruyere. We also do not saute the garlic in butter--just crush it or mince it and layer it with the cheese--using way more garlic and a little more cheese. Seems like no matter how much garlic we use, it never becomes too much--the baking it makes it very mild. I have had these separate when I've refriged and reheated them. Doesn't happen too often because they're usually GONE.

This was really good! My husband and I went on vacation and brought back a wheel of Gouda cheese. I was searching for recipes to use with it so it wouldn't go to waste and this recipe was VERY helpful. I have cooked this dish twice and it was great both times.

My husband and I thought this was an excellent, quick recipe for potatoes. We used smoked gouda, I added a little thinly sliced onion and a mix of heavy cream and half & half. Cooked it until it was really browned and bubbly, yum! No problems with seperation but would add more garlic next time, we love garlic.

Add more garlic and add half of it on the bottom layer. A big hit with kids.

I was concerned about the mixed reviews, but had some gouda cheese I needed to use up so I figured I would give this a try. I had the same issue as other reviewers, even right out of the oven it separated and looked rather unappealing. They tasted fine, I used a smoked gouda so the taste was also a little stronger. My husband ate too helpings, but that may have been because he skipped lunch and was hungry. I took a star away for appearance, on taste I would give a four.

Hmmmmmmm-not quite sure what I think about these. Overall the taste was good and I thought the gouda cheese was nice. However, the appearance-even when pulled right out of the oven - was not pretty. Looked pretty chunky. Overall, the taste was nice but I'm not quite sure if I'd make this again. Thanks anyways Lisa!

These potatoes were awesome! My six year old thinks this recipe should get "six hundred stars" (and she doesn't usually care for potatoes at all). The recipe doesn't need any altering. I did, however, use half & half instead of heavy cream and they came out just fine.
