Classic Potato Gratin




This is a very basic potato gratin recipe found at epicurean.com - I don't usually like gratins very much but this recipe is a worthy exception. We had this lovely gratin with some steamed broccoli and a tomato sauce.

floury potatoes (thinly sliced)
few cloves of garlic (thinly sliced)
cream
butter
salt
pepper
(parmesan cheese)

- Soak the potatoes in cold water for half an hour, drain and dry with a towel.
- Butter an oven dish and sprinkle about half of the garlic along the edges of the buttered sides of the pan.
- Make a thin layer of potatoes and add some butter pieces, salt, pepper, cream and garlic on top. Repeat this until the potatoes have been used.
- Bake for one to one and a half hours at 200 celsius, adding the parmesan halfway through, until the potatoes are very tender and have absorbed all the cream.
