This gratin is a great way to use up leftover potatoes and mushrooms. It's also a great dish to serve at a potluck or party.

I'm not a big fan of purple potatoes, but I loved this gratin! The potatoes were creamy and flavorful, and the mushrooms and fontina cheese were delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This gratin was a disappointment. The potatoes were undercooked and the mushrooms were slimy. I would not recommend this recipe.

This gratin was easy to make and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of cheese. I used cheddar cheese and it was a bit too sharp for my taste.

This gratin was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. However, the potatoes were cooked perfectly and the fontina cheese was melted and gooey.
