See RecipeFor extra crispy roasted potatoes, parboil them first, roughen the edges by shaking them in a colander, then roast at a high temperature with enough oil, turning occasionally.
For creamy mashed potatoes, use a potato ricer or masher, add warm cream and butter, and gently fold to combine, being careful not to overmix and cause gumminess.
To prevent watery scalloped potatoes, thinly slice the potatoes for even cooking, use a thick cream-based sauce, and ensure the dish is properly cooked until the sauce is bubbly and thick.
Yes, you can make mashed potatoes ahead of time by preparing them as usual, then reheating gently with a bit of added cream or milk, stirring until hot and smooth.
Starchy potatoes like Russets or Yukon Golds are best for gratin as they absorb the creamy sauce well and become tender without disintegrating during baking.
