    SO good! I did find it to be too much liquid but again, it's up to the individual's choice of how they like it. Didn't have Yukon Gold potatoes in any grocery stores, just plain potatoes. My Husband said they were good .

    These potatoes are AMAZING! I don't even like lemon and I thoroughly enjoyed these - now one of my favorite potato dishes.

    OMG, I made these potatoes and WOW.. super delicious!
    The recipe called for way too much liquid for not so many potatoes. So I have now written down my adjustments. The Yukon Gold Potatoes, I had never had until now. 5 stars!! I now will ONLY use these. They are great. I had to go to 4 different grocery stores to find them. But I'm glad I did.
    I also needed to add my own seasoning at the end to add a little more flavor. But ultimately, this recipe was a big hit. My husband and my mother were so impressed they called my other family members over to taste the potatoes!!
    The other thing was I didn't use as much lemon zest as recipe called for, but I definitely will add more the next time because that did give a unique flavor.
    Loved this recipe!!

    You can cut the potatoes as it will make the process quicker. As for the amount of liquid, it depends on how you want the texture to be so there is no set amount that is why he said between 2-3 cups.

    My son starts high school next week and has never had any interest in cooking. He saw Tyler making this recipe today and wanted to try it! I coached him, we altered the recipe slightly, and he and my boyfriend loved it (so did I !

    We added 1 tablespoon of lemon zest (vs. 2 and the lemon flavor came through nicely but didn't overwhelm the dish. Yukons weren't available so we used golds. We started the boiling with whole potatos, it was taking too long, halved them, still too long, then quaretered them. All in all, if you start by quartering them the cook time might be 25 minutes, but it took us 50 minutes to get them tender.

    We love Tyler and his recipes and now I can say even though I'm a foodie and try to instill my love for cooking in my kids, it was Tyler who finally got my son interested!

    If someone would let me know the exact amount of liquid that was used ( milk and cream, I would appreciate it as I only saw the 2nd half of the show. The reecipe says 2-3 cups and I'm wondering if Tyler said the amount he used on the show. Thank you. I'm rating this 5 stars in advance based on so many good reviews..

    My son made these yesterday, they are delicious. I was skeptical of lemon in my potatoes, but wow, I was so wrong. Yukons are not in season, so he substituted another gold potato, still perfect. My hubby has already claimed this is what he wants to take to work for their Thanksgiving potluck (it's still summer!!!

    I did not see this episode so I have a question. Are you suppose to boil the potatoes whole?!?! The recipe does not say to cut them or anything. Just wondering. Thanks!
