Potato Gratin!

Right, next thing I made today; Potato Gratin.
It's essentially a baked dish of finely-sliced potato, in a (soya) cream sauce, with chunks of vegan 'bacon', and topped with 'gouda-style' cheezly. Most importantly, it is delicious!

To make the cream sauce, I basically made a normal white sauce (I say 'normal', but obviously, the butter was changed to non-dairy margarine, and the milk to soya milk), but mixed in soya cream and extra margarine, with salt, some 'parmazano' alternative to parmesan, and plenty of freshly-ground black pepper.

As well as the 'bacon', I also put bits of the cheese between the potato layers too:

The topping went all golden and crispy, mmmm!!
