FAQ

Can I use a different type of potato?
Yes! Russet or red potatoes both work well. Just cut them into similar-sized pieces.

Do I have to cover the dish while baking?
Yes, covering keeps the potatoes moist. Remove the foil near the end if you want a crispier top.

Can I prep this ahead?
Definitely! Assemble everything in the dish, cover, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.
