Gratin Dauphinoise in simple terms is known as a potato gratin or a potato bake. Made from sliced potatoes baked in a cream sauce seasoned with garlic, nutmeg, black pepper, salt and butter.
What makes ours extra special is the additional ingredient of sliced red onions, which is not usually used in most recipes, and of course we load it up with tons of melted cheese on top.
To make Gratin Dauphinoise, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat oven to 350 °F and rub the cut garlic over the base of a 9-inch skillet or casserole dish and generously grease with butter all over the base and up the sides.
In a medium bowl, whisk cream, nutmeg, black pepper and salt until combined.
Arrange ⅓ of the potato slices at the base of the prepared dish then ⅓ of the onion slices, ⅓ cup of the cheese with some fresh thyme sprigs and ⅓ of the seasoned cream mixture. Repeat in 2 more layers with potatoes, onions, cheese and cream mixture. Top the final layer with remaining grated cheese.
Bake in preheated oven for 60-70 minutes until potatoes are cooked in the center and golden on top.
Allow to rest for about 10 minutes until serving.
