Equipment

1 Oven dish
1 chopping board

Ingredients

5 large potatoes
2.5 cups of double cream
3 tablespoon of melted butter
2 garlic cloves crushed
80 g of grana padano/parmesan/mozarella/gruyere grated
Salt to taste
White pepper to taste
2 teaspoon of thyme

Instructions

Preheat oven at 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Add double cream, crushed garlic, melted butter, salt to taste, white pepper to taste and thyme to a large bowl and mix. Set aside.
Wash and peel potatoes. Use a mandolin or a knife to thinly slice the potatoes.
Grab an ovenproof dish and add the sliced potatoes to the base of the dish. Then, pour some of the cream over the sliced potatoes and add some of the grated cheese. Repeat this step until the dish is full (the final layer should be cheese).
Bake in the oven for 1-1 ½ hours or until done.

Notes

Add-in: This dish is easy to change. If you would like less of a garlicky flavour then add 1 garlic clove instead of three. Also, you can substitute the double cream with single cream if you would like a healthier option.
Cream: For a healthier option, substitute double cream with single cream.
Potatoes: If you don't have a mandolin, slice the potatoes thinly with a knife. Make sure all the slices are the same size for even cooking.
