French potato gratin - Fransk potatisgratäng

FRENCH POTATO GRATIN
Fransk potatisgratäng

You can make real delicacies from potatoes. This gratin, creamy and delicious, is always a success at the dinner table.

4 servings

10 to 12 potatoes
1 to 2 onions
1 to 2 teaspoons salt
white or black pepper
1 ¼ to 1 ¾ cups whipping cream
2 to 3 crushed garlic cloves
¾ cup grated cheese


Peel potatoes and onions and cut in thin slices. Alternate layers of potatoes and onions in a greased, oven-proof dish. Flavour with half of the salt and pepper between the layers. Mix cream, remaining spices and garlic and pour the cream over the potatoes. Sprinkle with cheese.

Bake in the middle of the oven at 440F for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

If you want the gratin to contain less fat, substitute half of the cream with milk.

This gratin is especially good with roast beef, lamb roast, smoked or boiled ham, or eat it as a main dish with salad and a nice bread.

Enjoy!
