    The scalloped potatoes image is a potato gratin, made with circular sliced (scalloped) potatos. It is tangentially related to a potato scallop, the deep fried dish (known as a smack, in the above image, or probably generically known as a potato fritter). A potato scallop (‘a scallop’), is a battered, fried scalloped potato, so named after its shape.
