Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons salted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
1 cup whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 ½ teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves or ½ teaspoon dried thyme
Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
⅛ teaspoon freshly-grated nutmeg
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
½ cup grated Gruyere cheese
2 ½ lbs. russet potatoes (about 5 medium), peeled and sliced ⅛-inch thick

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400° F. Grease a 2-quart baking dish; set aside.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and garlic; cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the milk and cream; cook, whisking, until thickened, another 2 minutes or so. Add the thyme, salt, pepper, nutmeg, half of the cheddar and half of the Gruyere. Whisk for about 1 more minute, making sure that all of the cheese is melted. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
  • Arrange half of the potatoes in the prepared baking dish. Season with a little bit of salt. Pour half of the sauce over top. Arrange the remaining potatoes on top, season with another pinch of salt, and pour the remaining sauce over all. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Cover and bake for 50-60 minutes (or until the potatoes are just about tender), then uncover and bake until browned on top, an additional 15-20 minutes. Let cool slightly, then serve.

CREAMY AU GRATIN POTATOES



Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes image

This is my husband's favorite dish, and he considers it a special occasion every time I make it. The creamy cheese sauce and the tender potatoes in this classic French dish combine to make a deliciously addictive experience. It's a great side dish with a roast pork loin or beef tenderloin. Add a green salad and French bread, and you have found the magic path to a man's heart. To avoid lumps in your sauce, add the milk just a little at a time as you stir the flour and butter. Experiment with different cheeses for variety.

EASY AU GRATIN POTATOES



Easy Au Gratin Potatoes image

Oh, how we loved these rich and creamy au gratin potatoes. The cheddar cheese melts and combines with the heavy cream to form a thick and creamy sauce. Fresh onion gives a punch of flavor to the potatoes. Romano and cheddar cheese are sprinkled on top. Romano cheese is savory and is a nice touch. The hardest part of this side...

This is a very easy way to make creamy, cheesy potatoes. I used a wide baking dish. If using a taller narrower dish make 3 layers. You can vary the cheese. Last night I used a mixture of cheddar and mexican because I had a little of each left.
