Name: Potato Gratin
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 60 min
Total time: 75 min
Ingredients: 10 medium-sized starchy potatoes ((I prefer Yukon Gold)); 1 small yellow onion, (chopped); 3 - 4 cloves of garlic, (minced); 2 cups (5 dl) heavy cream, (or half-and-half); 1 cup (2.5 dl) shredded cheese ((a good melting cheese, like Monterey Jack)); 1 1/2 - 2 tsp salt; pinch of black pepper

TYPE : French

Casserole

YIELD : 8 servings

CALORIES : 436 kcal

PREP TIME : 15

COOK TIME : 1

TOTAL TIME : 1 15

INGREDIENTS :

10 medium-sized starchy potatoes (I prefer Yukon Gold)
1 small yellow onion, chopped
3 – 4 cloves of garlic, minced
2 cups (5 dl) heavy cream, or half-and-half
1 cup (2.5 dl) shredded cheese (a good melting cheese, like Monterey Jack)
1 1/2 – 2 tsp salt
pinch of black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS :

Set the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel and slice the potatoes thinly with a mandolin or knife.
Mix potatoes with chopped onion, minced garlic, salt and pepper and place in an oven-safe casserole dish. If you want a more decorative looking dish, reserve half of the potato slices and arrange them neatly on top.
Add the cream and top with shredded cheese.
Bake until the potatoes feel soft, about 50 – 60 minutes. If the top browns too quickly, protect it with a piece of aluminium foil.

NOTES :

Using half-and-half reduces the calorie count to 352 kcal per serving but makes it a little less creamy.

For some reason I have a hard time finding this in restaurants in the USA, it’s weird since it’s one of the best ways todo potatoes (Hasselbacks is still my fav).
