Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 kg waxy potato, peeled
125 g butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
30 g finely grated parmesan cheese
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Slice the potatoes into very thin rounds.
  • You should almost be able to see through them.
  • Melt the butter in a small pan, then pour a little of it over the base of a shallow baking dish.
  • Cover the butter with some of the potato slices, overlapping them slightly.
  • Pour on a little more butter, then season with salt, black pepper, garlic and a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.
  • Cover that with another layer of potatoes and seasonings, layering until you have used all the potatoes.
  • Finish with the remaining butter and another dusting of Parmesan.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 220 C or 425 F for 45-50 minutes.
  • From time to time, press the cake down firmly with a large spatula.
  • By the end of the cooking time, the cake should be golden and sizzling around its edges.
  • Remove from the oven and leave it to settle slightly for a few minutes before serving.
