Potatoes. Scalloped, dauphinois, lyonnaise, au gratin, bake or casserole. I call them delicious!

Potatoes. Scalloped, dauphinois, lyonnaise, au gratin, bake or casserole. I call them delicious!

Summary: We have been talking about these potatoes for two weeks now. I know that the kind potato bake we love is more fat than potato but these potatoes were shut up awesome, so don’t flip out at the ingredients. I actually reduced the fat significantly. I’ve made this kind of thinly sliced, creamy, cheesy potato a million times but this is the only recipe that’s just right. This recipe is based on the cordon bleu cookbook that came with one of my appliances but I can’t find it to credit them. The trick with this dish is to slice the potatoes thinly, I use my food processor because it’s super quick, super thin and I enjoy having finger tips! Your cooking time may vary if your slices are thicker. 

Ingredients
  • 600g potatoes
  • 500ml cream
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 100g cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1 tsp ground pepper
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
  1. Pre heat the oven to 180C.
  2. Peel the potatoes and slice super thinly. I use a food processor with a 2mm blade for this after the unfortunate mandolin incident of 2011.
  3. Arrange the potatoes in layers in a baking dish. Whisk the cream, salt, pepper and garlic together and pour over the potatoes.
  4. Cover the potatoes with foil and bake for 40 mins. Remove the foil and sprinkle the cheese over the potatoes. Bake for a further 40mins. Test potatoes for doneness by poking with a butter knife. If not tender, cook a little longer, covering with foil if it becomes too brown on top.
  5. I like to allow this to cool for 5 mins before serving. We always have this with steak and greens, like baked brussels or pan wilted spinach.
