Classic potato gratin
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350ï€ F. Butter a 9-inch-square baking dish, and set aside.
- Whisk together the cream, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 / 4 teaspoon pepper, and the nutmeg in a small bowl, and set aside. Toss the potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 / 4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl.
- Arrange one-third of the potatoes in the buttered dish, overlapping the slices. Sprinkle with one-third of the cheese. Repeat two more times with the remaining potatoes and cheese (end with a cheese layer). Pour the reserved cream mixture over the top layer. Gently shake the dish back and forth to distribute evenly.
- Cover with foil; bake 30 minutes. Remove the foil; bake until bubbling and well browned, about 30 minutes more. Let cool slightly before serving.
