potatoes lorette [General]

2010 Jun 7
has anyone ever made potatoes lorette? there was a recipe for them in epicurius and the comments convinced me to make them. I have to say they were a lot of work and I didn't find the wow factor. I was hoping to make a potato dish for a cottage ladies weekend.
Just finishing some part time courses in the culinary arts program so there is a little pressure to make something different but good.
any ideas?
