Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 medium potatoes
5 zucchini (tiny ones or else 2 medium or 1 big)
250 ml cream (full fat or light)
300 g ham (I used 'parizaki' but Spam is good too)
1 small onion
1 garlic clove
1 tablespoon butter
salt and pepper
oregano
nutmeg (freshly grated)

Steps:

  • Peel potatoes and cut into quarters. Boil for around 20 minutes in salted water until slightly cooked. They should be firm.
  • Meanwhile melt butter in a small saucepan and add the onion which you have finely chopped and the minced garlic clove. If you don't like garlic much you can omit or if you love garlic you can double the cloves.
  • Sautee until the onion is translucent (about 5 minutes) and then add the chopped ham and cook for 2 minutes. Add some oregano to taste.
  • Drain the potatoes and chop into smaller pieces and place in a 20cm x 30cm baking dish.
  • Chop the zucchini into fairly small pieces and add to the potatoes. I had tiny fresh zucchini which I sliced but if you have larger ones you may have to chop them up and perhaps even remove the centres if they are very pulpy.
  • Add the zucchini to the potatoes and then mix in the onion-ham-butter mixture.
  • Pour over the cream and stir gently to coat well. You can add a little water especially to rinse out the cream container. ( Not more than 1/2 cup though).
  • Season with salt and pepper and some freshly ground nutmeg.
  • Bake at 180 celcius for around 35 minutes or until the top is a little brown and the cream has thickened into a sauce.
  • Serve with a green salad.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes. Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Golds or Red Bliss, hold their shape well and won't become mushy when cooked.
  • Slice the potatoes thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a good quality cheese. Gruyère or Parmesan are both good choices.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. The potatoes should be in a single layer so that they can brown evenly.
  • Bake the potatoes until they are golden brown and bubbly. This should take about 30 minutes.

Conclusion:

Potatoes and Zucchini Au Gratin is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. It's perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The combination of potatoes, zucchini, cheese, and cream is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give Potatoes and Zucchini Au Gratin a try.
