SUPER EASY POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C/Gas Mark 4).
• Peel, rinse, and dry the potatoes and slice as thinly as possible (a mandoline is good for this, but a sharp knife works too).
• In a large saucepan, place the potatoes, milk, cream, 1 of the crushed garlic cloves, salt to taste, a dash of pepper, and a dash of nutmeg or mace.
• Bring to a very gentle boil over medium-low heat and simmer for 10 minutes until the cream thickens.
• Remove from the heat and add the grated Gruyère. Stir until the cheese has melted.
• Generously grease a 1 1/2 to 2-quart baking dish with 1 teaspoon of the butter, then rub the dish all over with the remaining lightly crushed clove of garlic.
• Pour the potato mixture into the dish, using a spoon to gently move the potatoes in the cream mixture to make sure they are all covered.
• Finely slice the brie into long strips and lay across the top of the gratin. Dot the surface with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Season with salt and pepper.
• Bake for about 40 minutes or until the top is bubbly and golden brown and the potatoes are soft when pierced with a knife. If the top is browning too quickly before the potatoes are cooked, cover with aluminum foil. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

Meanwhile, slice the potatoes on a mandoline to 1/8-inch thick. Place the potatoes in the warm cream mixture and simmer gently until the potatoes are two-thirds of the way cooked and the cream has thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Place a 9-by-12-inch flameproof gratin dish on the stove over low heat. Brush the bottom and the sides with the melted butter. Spread the garlic around the bottom of the dish.

Combine the Gruyere and Parmesan in a bowl, then sprinkle a third of the cheese over the potatoes. Repeat the layering 2 more times, finishing with the remaining cheese. Pick the thyme leaves and sprinkle over the top, mixing with last layer of cheese. Place the gratin dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until bubbly and golden, 45 to 50 minutes (see Cook's Note).
