[ NOTE ]

1 I like using yukon gold potatoes in this recipe, but russets will work as well.
Or try sweet potatoes for variety!

2 Try to slice your potatoes similar levels of thickness; this will help them cook more evenly. If you slice your potatoes thicker, they will take longer to cook, so keep this in mind.

3 May leave out the onions and garlic if desired, but they add a lot of flavor to the dish.
