How to Make Autumn Potato Gratin
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and thinly slice 2 lbs of potatoes (about 3-4 medium).
- In a large baking dish (9x13 inch), arrange the potato slices in an overlapping layer.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy cream, 4 tablespoons butter, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, 2 cloves minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Bring the cream mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing the herbs and garlic to infuse the cream.
- Strain the cream mixture over the potatoes in the baking dish, ensuring the potatoes are at least ¾ covered. Add more cream if needed.
- Sprinkle 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown and bubbly.
- Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
