Potato gratin – baked potatoes with cream and cheese – delicious, aromatic, and easy to prepare A quick dinner.
Ingredients
Potatoes – 1 kg
Cream 10% – 200 ml
Hard cheese – 200 g
Butter – 30 g
Garlic – 1-2 cloves
Nutmeg – 0.25 teaspoon
Salt to taste
Ground black pepper – to taste
Directions
Cut 1 kg of potatoes into thin slices – the thinner the better.
Add salt, pepper, nutmeg, and 100 g of finely grated cheese to the cream. Heat the mixture over low heat until the cheese dissolves. The sauce for the potato casserole is ready.
Grease the baking dish with butter. Squeeze 1-2 cloves of garlic through a press and distribute along the bottom of the mold.
We spread the sliced potatoes in a mold in layers, coat each layer with the prepared creamy cheese sauce, except for the top one (you can salt it a little).
Cover the dish with foil and bake the potatoes with cream and cheese at 180 degrees for about 50 minutes, until the potatoes are ready.
Remove the foil, sprinkle the remaining cheese on the potatoes, and send them back to the oven. We bake the potatoes in the oven for another 10-15 minutes, increasing the temperature to 200 degrees.
