Potato Dauphinois

I love cheesy potato dauphinois but never thought I’d be able to enjoy it whilst dieting because it’s so rich and creamy. This Slimming World friendly version will cost you only 1 Health Extra A (HEA) and is packed full of flavour.

Please note this recipe makes 2 portions, otherwise it will cost you 2 of your HEA’s.

  • Prep time: 15mins
  • Cooking time: 30mins

Ingredients

  • 4 Potatoes
  • 4 Low fat cheese triangles (1 HEA)
  • 1 Vegetable stock cube
  • 1tsp Garlic seasoning
  • 1tsp Black pepper
  • 30g Grated Cheddar cheese (1 HEA)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees while you peel your potatoes.
  2. Slice the potatoes about half a cm thick.
  3. Rinse the potato slices and put them in the microwave with a little water for 5 minutes to soften them up.
  4. While the potatoes are in the microwave dissolve your vegetable stock cube in 1/2 pint of boiling water.
  5. Add your garlic and pepper seasoning to the stock along with the cheese triangles.
  6. Stir it all together to dissolve as much as possible.
  7. Take your potatoes out of the microwave, drain away any water and leave them to cool for a minute.
  8. Heat up your stock and cheese triangle broth in the microwave for 1 minute. This will allow the cheese triangle to melt properly.
  9. In an oven dish arrange your potato slices into layers.
  10. Pour the stock broth over the potatoes and cook in the oven for 20 minutes.
  11. Place your grated cheese over the potatoes and bake for a further 10mins until melted. Then serve and enjoy!

This recipe goes well with veggies and a Sunday roast, or equally well with salad and grilled chicken.
