Gordon Ramsay Boulangère Potatoes Recipe

Gordon Ramsay Boulangère Potatoes
Print Recipe

Boulangère Potatoes is a traditional French dish where thinly sliced potatoes are layered with onions, herbs, and stock, then baked until tender and golden. Unlike dauphinoise, which is made with cream, this dish relies on broth for richness, creating a lighter yet deeply flavorful potato dish. Gordon Ramsay’s version enhances the recipe with thyme, garlic, and a touch of butter for extra indulgence.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs (900g) Yukon Gold or Maris Piper potatoes, thinly sliced
