Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 fresh green Anaheim or poblano chiles (3/4 pound)
2 cups heavy cream or half-and-half
1 large garlic clove
2 1/2 pounds russet (baking) potatoes (about 5)
Special Equipment
a mandoline or other manual slicer

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Lay chiles on their sides on rack of a gas burner and turn flame on high. (Or put chiles on rack of broiler pan about 2 inches from heat.) Roast chiles, turning with tongs, until skins are blackened, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer chiles to a bowl and let stand, covered, 15 minutes.
  • Rub skins off chiles with paper towels and discard stems and seeds (if desired, devein to further reduce heat).
  • Bring cream with garlic just to a simmer and remove from heat. Peel potatoes and cut crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices using mandoline.
  • Arrange one fourth of potatoes evenly in bottom of a well-buttered 2-quart shallow baking dish, overlapping them slightly, and sprinkle with salt to taste and one fourth of chiles. Make 3 more layers in same manner. Remove garlic from cream and pour cream over potatoes. Cover dish with foil and bake in lower third of oven 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake until gratin is golden brown on top and bubbling, about 30 minutes more. Cool slightly before serving.

This gratin is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. It's also a great dish to make for a potluck or party.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my gratin turned out dry and crumbly. I think I might have overcooked it.

The gratin was a bit runny, but it still tasted good. I think I might try baking it for a little longer next time.

This gratin was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added some more spices.

This dish is a great way to sneak some vegetables into your kids' diet. My kids loved the cheesy potatoes and didn't even notice the green chiles.

I'm not a big fan of green chiles, but I loved this gratin. The chiles added a nice subtle heat that didn't overpower the other flavors.

I added some chopped bacon to the gratin and it was amazing. It gave the dish a nice smoky flavor.

I was short on time, so I used frozen hash browns instead of fresh potatoes. It still turned out great!

This dish was a great way to use up leftover potatoes. It was also a nice change from the usual mashed potatoes or potato salad.

The gratin was delicious, but I found it to be a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I will use less green chiles.

This potato green chile gratin was a hit with my family! It was creamy, cheesy, and had just the right amount of spice. I will definitely be making this again.
