Garlic Potatoes Gratin

An unbelievable rich twist on au gratin potatoes, this casserole develops a caramelized, cheesy, roasted-garlic crust as it bakes. However, this dish does not save well (leftovers tend to separate and become oily), so eat up! Wonderful with a ham dinner.

  • Ingreadient
    • 3 pounds red potatoes, peeled and sliced

    • 6 ounces Gouda cheese, shredded, divided

    • 3 tablespoons butter

    • 5 cloves garlic, minced

    • 1 ½ cups heavy cream

    • 1 teaspoon salt

    • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Direction

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. In the prepared dish layer 1/2 of the potatoes, 1/2 of the cheese, then the remaining potatoes.
  3. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Saute garlic until fragrant and golden brown; pour over potatoes.
  4. Combine cream, salt and pepper; pour evenly over potatoes and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  5. Bake in preheated oven for 75 minutes. Serve immediately.
