Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 7. Tip cream, milk, garlic and horseradish into a large saucepan, season, then bring to the boil. Reduce the heat, add the potatoes, stir to stop them sticking together, then cook for 10 mins until tender.

  • step 2

    Pour the potatoes and horseradish cream into an ovenproof dish. You can do this up to a day ahead. Cover, store in the fridge, then bring back to room temp an hour before you want to bake.

  • step 3

    Bake for the 30 mins at 190C/170C fan/ gas 5, (if you're cooking roast beef & carrots with easy gravy, you can pop it on the shelf below the beef for the last 30 minutes of the beef's cooking time); then increase the temp to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and cook for another 30-35 mins. (Add the muffin tin for the yorkshire puddings when you turn the oven up.)

question

Having seen a few comments e.g. "I found the potatoes needed far longer to cook" - Should you par-boil the potatoes in water(for say 10 minutes) before the first step:- "Tip cream, milk, garlic and horseradish into a large saucepan, season, then bring to the boil"

question

What would be the cooking time for two people.

Hi, thanks for your question. We haven't tested a half portion I'm afraid, but we'd expect it to probably take about 15 mins less at the higher temp (and the full half hour at the lower temp). We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

I found the potatoes needed far longer to cook , they were still quite firm in the finished meal.

tip

I didn’t have cream so replaced with creme fraiche mixed with skimmed milk & worked really well! So easy compared with other dauphinois I’ve done

This turned out OK, but nothing special. I think it would have been better with more garlic and seasoning, and if the potatoes were waxy. I used maris piper and they turned to mush.
