I'm not a big fan of fennel, but I really enjoyed this gratin. The fennel flavor was subtle and it complemented the potatoes and cheese perfectly.

Easy to make and delicious! The fennel added a unique flavor that I really enjoyed. The breadcrumb topping was the perfect finishing touch.

I loved this gratin! It was creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. The fennel added a nice touch of anise, and the breadcrumb topping was crispy and golden brown. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was a disappointment. The potatoes were undercooked and the fennel was overpowering. I wouldn't recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my gratin turned out dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened. I'm going to try it again and see if I can get it right.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. The potatoes were cooked perfectly and the fennel and cheese added a lot of flavor. I think I would use less cheese next time. Overall, this is a good recipe and I would recommend
