I usually try to make potato dauphanoise and it ALWAYS splits, tastes yummy but I always get the whey or water at the bottom. This looks sooooo scrummy and easy and I'd love to see if it sets properly. Have you ever microwaved the potatoes then peeled and sliced? I microwave potatoes for gnocchi even though it's pretty much forbidden and it works a treat. Am so lazy, I know!!! ;)
