Leek, Potato, and Morel Gratin image

This is a rich, magnificent potato gratin, so enjoy it and don't even think about replacing the heavy cream with anything else or skimping on the amount. A sprinkle of lemon zest at the end gives it a bright pop against the earthy morels.

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for dish
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 ounces (1 cup) fresh morel mushrooms, washed, patted dry, and halved or quartered if large
1 stem green garlic, trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch slices (or 2 small cloves fresh garlic, sliced)
1 1/2 pounds white all-purpose or Yukon Gold potatoes (3 medium)
2 medium leeks (white and pale-green parts only), cut on the diagonal into 1/2-inch slices and rinsed well
Coarse salt
Zest of half a lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Generously butter a 2 1/2-quart baking dish. Bring cream, broth, morels, and green garlic to a simmer.
  • Assemble the gratin: Peel potatoes, and cut crosswise into slices slightly thicker than 1/8 inch. Layer potatoes in dish, overlapping slightly. Spread half the leeks over top, and season with salt. Pour half the cream mixture over top. Repeat.
  • Cover gratin with foil, and bake 40 minutes. Uncover, and bake until potatoes are tender and golden and most of the liquid is absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes more. Let cool 15 minutes. Before serving, sprinkle with lemon zest.

This gratin is a bit time-consuming to make, but it's worth the effort. The flavors are amazing and the gratin is so rich and decadent. I served it to my friends for dinner and they all raved about it. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of morels, so I substituted them with mushrooms. The gratin still turned out delicious. The leeks and potatoes were perfectly cooked and the cheese was melted and bubbly. I served it with a side of salad and it was a light and satis

This gratin is a great way to use up leftover leeks and potatoes. I also like to add some chopped bacon or ham to the gratin for extra flavor. It's a hearty and comforting dish that's perfect for a cold night.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I often add other vegetables to the gratin, such as broccoli or cauliflower. I also like to use different types of cheese, such as Gruyère or Fontina.
