The texture will be different at the end, but both should be good. The same goes for slicing thickness -- I will typically slice about 1/16 of an inch (or two millimeters) thick. Try not to go thicker than 1/8 of an inch, but above all be safe and comfortable. The dish will still taste good at thicker cuts. One tip to make fine slicing easier is to take a thin slice off of one side of the potato, which then creates a flat base so the potato isn't rocking while you try to cut.

One quarter inch? One eighth? Transparent slice? What kind of potato do you recommend? Please help with specifics. Thank you. What, exactly, do you mean by “thinly sliced,” please? One quarter inch?

This is great for cooking for people who are lactose intolerant, but love potatoes.<br/><br/>BTW, your pork dish from your previous post looked awesome too. Your waving around seems to have worked.
