Method

Slice the potatoes thinly. Butter an ovenproof dish and place a bay leaf on the bottom. Cover with a layer of potatoes and sprinkle with parsley and some salt and pepper. Continue to make layers of potatoes, parsley, and seasoning, finishing with a layer of potatoes. Place the other bay leaf on top and dot with the remaining butter. Pour over the cream or milk.
