POTATOES LYONNAISE

Potatoes Lyonnaise image

Potatoes lyonnaise is a classic side dish I learned to make in culinary school. I sometimes switch up the herbs to give it a different flavor. It is very simple to make and couldn't be more comforting. It's fantastic for casual dinners but also elegant enough for the holidays. -James Schend, Taste of Home Deputy Editor
