Simple potato gratin with garlic, thyme and Parmesan – Page 2

Butter your baking dish and arrange a layer of potato slices. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and a bit of grated Parmesan.

Pour some of the infused milk over the potatoes, then repeat the layers until all potatoes are used. Finish with a generous layer of Parmesan on top.

Dot the top with small pieces of butter to help create a golden crust.

Bake for about 45-55 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the top is bubbly and golden brown.

Serving Suggestions:

This gratin pairs beautifully with roasted meats, grilled vegetables, or a fresh green salad. It’s also fantastic on its own for a cozy vegetarian meal.

Tips for the Perfect Gratin:

Slice potatoes uniformly for even cooking—using a mandoline slicer can make this quicker and safer.
Don’t rush the baking — the slow, gentle cooking lets the potatoes become creamy without drying out.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs like rosemary or add a pinch of nutmeg for a subtle warmth.
