This traditional French casserole of thinly sliced potatoes with milk, cream, garlic, and Gruyere cheese, takes a little effort, but the result is a bubbling, indulgent accompaniment to a special meal.

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for baking dish
3 pounds (8 to 10 small) Yukon gold potatoes
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 1/4 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 dried bay leaf
Freshly ground pepper
3 ounces Gruyere cheese, finely grated (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with rack in center. Generously butter a 9-by-12-inch glass baking dish. Peel potatoes, and slice into 1/8-inch-thick rounds. Place slices in a bowl of cold water as you go to prevent discoloration.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine garlic, milk, heavy cream, salt, nutmeg, and bay leaf. Bring just to a simmer over medium heat, and pour into prepared baking dish. Discard bay leaf.
  • Drain potatoes in a colander, and transfer to baking dish. Using a large spoon, toss potatoes with milk mixture pressing down gently to distribute the potato slices evenly. Season with pepper. Dot with butter, distributing evenly over entire surface; sprinkle with cheese.
  • Place in oven; bake until potatoes can be pierced with a fork and top is brown, 45 to 50 minutes. Serve immediately.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The potatoes were undercooked and the cheese was rubbery.

I followed the recipe exactly and my gratin dauphinoise turned out perfect! It was creamy, cheesy, and had a beautiful golden crust.

The cheese and potato flavors were on point, but I found the dish to be a bit too oily.
