Creamy Cheesy Potato Gratin
Layers of tender potatoes baked in a rich, creamy sauce and topped with bubbly, golden cheese—pure comfort food!
Ingredients:
For the Gratin
2 lbs (900 g) potatoes, thinly sliced
2 cups heavy cream
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (Gruyère, cheddar, or mozzarella)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Prepare the Cream Mixture:
In a saucepan, heat heavy cream, minced garlic, salt, and pepper over medium heat. Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat.
Layer the Potatoes:
Arrange half of the sliced potatoes in the prepared dish, overlapping slightly. Pour half of the cream mixture over the potatoes and sprinkle with half of the shredded cheese. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, cream, and cheese.
Bake:
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil, sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top, and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Garnish and Serve:
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
