Steps:
- Rub side of a 2 quart gratin dish with the cut side of the garlic cloves and enough butter to grease the sides and bottom. Blanch the potatoes with the onion and salt for 5 minutes. Drain and discard the onion. Spread half of the potatoes in the gratin dish. Salt and pepper to taste. Top with half of the creme fraiche and half of the cheese. Place the remaining potatoes on top, then cover with the rest of the creme fraiche and cheese. Dot with the remaining butter. Bake at 425 degrees for 35-45 minutes or until the top is browned.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the gratin will be. Use russet potatoes for a creamy texture, and a good-quality Gruyère cheese that melts well.
- Slice the potatoes thinly: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for slices that are about 1/8-inch thick.
- Don't overcrowd the baking dish: The potatoes need room to cook evenly, so don't crowd them in the baking dish.
- Bake the gratin until it is golden brown and bubbly: This will ensure that the potatoes are cooked through and the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Let the gratin rest before serving: This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
