At the heart of this gratin are russet potatoes, known for their fluffy consistency when mashed.

The addition of grated Parmesan adds a nutty depth, while fresh chives provide a pop of color and flavor that brightens every bite.
What sets this Garlic Mashed-Potato Gratin apart is the golden brown top, achieved by dotting the potatoes with buttery goodness before baking. The result is a dish that is not only visually appealing but also offers a satisfying crunch that contrasts beautifully with the creamy interior. Perfect for any occasion, this gratin is sure to become a favorite on your dinner table, inviting everyone to come back for seconds.
