Cheesy Garlic Potatoes Gratin (Print-Friendly Version)

Creamy potatoes with garlic and cheese, baked until bubbly and golden. Perfect complement for dinner or gatherings.

# What You’ll Need to Make This:

→ Potatoes and Dairy

01 - 900 g Yukon gold potatoes, thinly sliced
02 - 480 ml heavy cream
03 - 240 ml whole milk
04 - 225 g shredded cheddar cheese
05 - 50 g grated Parmesan cheese
06 - 28 g unsalted butter

→ Spices and Aromatics

07 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
08 - 0.5 teaspoon salt
09 - 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
10 - 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg

# How to Prepare:

01 - Preheat oven to 190°C. Grease a ceramic or glass baking dish with a portion of the butter.
02 - In a saucepan over medium heat, combine heavy cream, whole milk, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Warm gently, stirring occasionally, until mixture is heated through but not boiling.
03 - Arrange half of the sliced potatoes in an even layer in the prepared baking dish. Pour half of the warm cream mixture evenly over the potatoes.
04 - Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar and grated Parmesan evenly over the potatoes.
05 - Top with the remaining sliced potatoes, pour over the rest of the cream mixture, and finish with the remaining cheddar and Parmesan cheese.
06 - Dot the surface with the remaining butter. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
07 - Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
08 - Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 20 minutes, or until the surface is golden brown and bubbling.
09 - Allow the gratin to cool for several minutes before portioning and serving.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For a crispier, deeply golden top, broil the dish for 2–3 minutes at the end of baking.
