SWEET POTATO GRATIN WITH GRUYERE



Sweet Potato Gratin with Gruyere image

I found this recipe last Thanksgiving. Certainly not "traditional" but I am making it one for us. YUMMMMMMM Last year I had to make a second batch to have with other leftovers.

Provided by Lindsey G

Categories     Potatoes

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 c heavy cream
1 tsp salt
3 lb sweet potatoes, peeled
1/2 c shredded gruyere cheese

Steps:

  • 1. You'll Need:9-inch x 9-inch baking dish, mandoline (really helpful and saves a ton of time), nonstick cooking spray, large baking sheet Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Spray baking dish with nonstick spray. Place baking dish on baking sheet.
  • 3. Stir together heavy cream and salt in large bowl. Using mandoline, slice yams into bowl, coating slices with cream mixture as you work.
  • 4. Layer 1/3 of sweet potatoes in baking dish. Sprinkle with half of cheese. Repeat with another 1/3 of sweet potatoes and remainder of cheese. Top with remaining sweet potatoes. Pour any remaining yam-cream mixture over top.
  • 5. Bake uncovered on center rack of oven 30 min. Remove from oven.
  • 6. Press fork or spatula, carefully, against top layer to allow liquid to flow over "crust." Replace pan in oven; bake 30 min. Remove pan; press top layer to allow liquid to flow over top. Replace pan in oven; bake 40-45 min or until sweet potatoes are tender. Remove from oven; let rest 15 min.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, smooth sweet potatoes without blemishes or bruises. Avoid any that are soft or have cracks in the skin.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you create thin, even slices of sweet potato. This will ensure that they cook evenly and have a nice texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Make sure there is enough space between the sweet potato slices so that they can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the dish, the sweet potatoes will steam instead of roast.
  • Use a good quality cheese: Gruyère cheese is a classic choice for sweet potato gratin, but you can also use other types of cheese, such as cheddar, Parmesan, or mozzarella.
  • Don't overcook the gratin: The sweet potatoes should be tender but still slightly firm. If you overcook them, they will become mushy.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato gratin is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It's perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With its creamy, cheesy sauce and crispy sweet potato topping, it's sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy sweet potatoes, give this gratin a try. You won't be disappointed!
