German Potato Bake image

This is pretty much like the original recipe most of us usually make - a little sweet a little sour and bacon of course! :). This is a little sweeter than sour. You know I have more than one sweet tooth. Hope you enjoy and feel free to change it to your sweet and sour palate. Enjoy my tweaks.

The potatoes were a bit dry. I think I should have added more milk or cream.

This recipe was a waste of time. The potatoes were mushy and the bacon was burnt.

I followed the recipe exactly and my potatoes came out undercooked. I had to put them back in the oven for another 30 minutes.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more salt and pepper, and maybe some other spices. The potatoes were also a little dry.

This was a delicious and easy recipe to make. I used Yukon Gold potatoes and they turned out perfectly. I also added some fresh thyme to the dish, which gave it a nice herby flavor.
