Step 1
Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).
Step 2
Grease an ovenproof baking dish with butter.
Step 3
Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly using a mandoline or a sharp knife.
Step 4
Aim for even slices around 3mm thick to ensure uniform cooking.
Step 5
In a small saucepan, gently heat the double cream, milk, and minced garlic over low heat.
Step 6
Add a pinch of grated nutmeg, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir the mixture gently, ensuring it does not boil.
Step 7
Arrange a layer of potato slices in the greased baking dish, slightly overlapping them.
Step 8
Pour some of the cream mixture over the top, spreading it evenly.
Step 9
Continue layering the potatoes and cream mixture until all the ingredients are used, finishing with a final layer of cream on top.
Step 10
Cover the baking dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven.
Step 11
Bake for 1 hour, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 30 minutes until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 12
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the potatoes to set.
Step 13
Serve hot as a side to roast meats, fish, or a fresh salad.
