POTATO AND PARSNIP GRATIN
Despite their unique and delicious flavor and fun-to-pronounce name, parsnips have really never caught on. We're going to hide them in a potato gratin and our friends and family will enjoy them without even knowing it! This is great as a brunch or breakfast potato side dish.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Butter 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange 1/3 of potatoes in even layer in dish. Top with bay leaves, then 1/2 of parsnips.

- Bake gratin uncovered at 450°F until sauce bubbles thickly and top is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes; serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are the best choices for this dish, as they hold their shape well and become creamy when cooked.
- Slice the potatoes and parsnips thinly: This will help them cook evenly and ensure that they are tender throughout.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you are using a small pan, cook the potatoes and parsnips in batches. Otherwise, they will not brown properly and will be more likely to stick to the pan.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the key ingredients in this dish, so it is important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Gruyère, Parmesan, and cheddar are all good choices.
- Season the dish well: Don't be afraid to season the dish with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the potatoes, parsnips, and cheese.
Conclusion:
Parsnip potato gratin is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With its creamy texture and cheesy flavor, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
