Step 1

Preheat the oven to 175 degrees.Prepare the ingredientsPeel and slice the potatoes thinly, preferably with a mandolin

Step 2

Slice the garlic cloves and fry them in olive oil in a large saucepan, just until them taking on color. Pour on milk and cream and bring to the boil.

Step 3

Add the potatoes and cook until the cream milk has thickened. It is because the starch is pulled out. Stir constantly so that it does not burn, stirring slowly is the key here.Add salt and pepper. Stir in ⅔ of the grated cheese. Taste and adjust salt/pepper.

Step 4

Pour everything into a greased, ovenproof dish. Sprinkle with the rest of the grated cheese.

Step 5

Gratinate for about 60-70 minutes. Feel with a test pin that the gratin is ready. If necessary, place foil towards the end so that it does not burn, although I like the crispy crust on top. Cuisine: The cream of the crop
