A comforting dish of creamy scalloped potatoes with layers of rich cheese and a cheesy cream sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (e.g., cheddar, Gruyère)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • Chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Butter a baking dish and layer half of the sliced potatoes.
  3. Combine the heavy cream, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  4. Pour half of the creamy mixture over the potatoes.
  5. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on top.
  6. Layer the remaining potatoes, followed by the rest of the cream and cheese.
  7. Add grated Parmesan cheese on top if desired.
  8. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes.
  9. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
  10. Allow to cool for a moment, then garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

For a lighter option, substitute part of the heavy cream with milk; high-quality cheese improves flavor.
