HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, depending on your schedule.
You’ll know it’s ready when the potatoes are tender enough to pierce easily with a fork.
6. Let It Rest Before Serving
When the cooking time is up, turn off the slow cooker and let the dish sit for a few minutes. This brief resting time allows the sauce to thicken slightly and the flavors to blend even more beautifully.
Helpful Tips for Success
Choose the right potatoes. Starchy potatoes like Russets create a creamy sauce, while waxier types like Yukon Golds hold their shape better.
Slice evenly. Uniform slices ensure the potatoes cook evenly throughout. A mandoline slicer can help with this.
Add extra flavor. Feel free to toss in some chopped fresh herbs, a touch of nutmeg, or even a handful of cooked, crumbled bacon if you’d like to make it heartier.
Don’t lift the lid. It’s tempting to peek, but each time you open the slow cooker, you release heat and moisture, which can change the texture.
