To the reviewer named "teeitup" regarding your potatoes not being creamy but oily and separating...mine did that once when I cooked them too long. If you get the right thickness which is pretty thin, mine weren't paper thin, and cook them 40 minutes and take them out they should be very creamy.

One of the best gratin recipes I'm come across. Instead of the thyme, I did fresh rosemary instead. GREAT.

I made this for my family and everyone loved it.
I followed the receipe to the letter with three exceptions.
First, I used shredded parmisano and romano cheeses.
Second, I added one finely sliced vidalia onion.
Third, I baked it for one hour. I suspect that added bake time probably had to do with the size of the potatoe slices.
Everyone agreed the dish was delicious. I expect to make it often. It is so easy to make.
We ate this dish with slices of warmed ham. Next time I am going to put diced ham in the receipe.
