Creamy Potatoes Au Gratin
Potatoes au gratin
What you need
- 1-3/4 lbs. Yukon Gold Potatoes
- 2-1/2 cups Smith Brothers Farms Milk
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1-1/2 tsp. minced garlic
- 1/2 cup Smith Brothers Farms Heavy Whipping Cream
- Gruyere, Parmesan, or other sharper cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375F. Peel potatoes and then slice to 1/8th-inch slices. Do not rinse, as the starch from the potatoes will help to thicken the sauce. Bring the milk to a simmer over medium heat. Once at a simmer, add potatoes, salt, pepper, and garlic.
Simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, until the sauce has thickened. Remove from heat, and transfer to a baking dish. (Tip: Shallow dishes work best, but make sure it will hold at least 7 cups.)
Pour heavy cream over the top (and if you’re including it, sprinkle grated cheese over as well), and place in oven. Bake for 1 hour or until potatoes
