To prepare this potato au gratin, remove the plastic film from the tray. You can heat it in a conventional oven or a microwave. For oven preparation, preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the packaging, usually around 375°F (190°C). Place the tray on a baking sheet and heat for the recommended time, typically 30-40 minutes, until it is heated through and the top is bubbly and lightly browned. For microwave preparation, heat on high power for the indicated time, usually 5-7 minutes, stirring halfway through. Ensure the dish is piping hot before serving.
