A festive and comforting dish, Potato Gratin is essential for Christmas meals. Layered with cream, garlic, and Parmesan, these potatoes are baked until golden and bubbly, making them a family favorite during holiday gatherings.
1: Preheat the oven to 400F.
2: In a pot, heat up the cream with the thyme, garlic, nutmeg, chili flakes, salt, and pepper without boiling, just gently warming it.
3: While the cream is heating, butter a casserole dish.
4: Place a layer of potatoes to cover the bottom of the dish.
5: Sprinkle with Parmesan and pour some cream over.
6: Keep layering the potatoes, Parmesan, and cream until all ingredients are used, ensuring the top layer of potatoes is attractively shingled.
7: Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
8: Remove the foil and continue baking until golden and bubbly; the potatoes are done when a fork glides through easily.
