Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
Prepare the Potatoes: Place your sliced potatoes into the baking dish in an even layer.
Mix the Gravy: In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk the two packets of brown gravy mix with the water until smooth.
Combine: Pour the gravy mixture over the potatoes. Use a spoon to toss them slightly, ensuring every piece is well-coated.
Bake: Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 30 minutes.
The Final Crisp: Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes. This allows the gravy to thicken and the tops of the potatoes to develop a slight crust.
Serve: Let the dish stand for 5 minutes before serving to allow the gravy to set.
