Basic Potatoe Gratin

Directions

1. 1
   Peel raw potatoes and slice very thinly (mandoline).
2. 2
   Stack them in an oven proof dish (butter is not necessary, the cream will prevent the potatoes from sticking to the dish) and let them overlap (like tiles on a roof).
3. 3
   Mix cream and milk together, add garlic, salt, pepper and nutmeg (here you could also throw in some rosemary if you like). Be generous with the salt!
4. 4
   Put gratin into a preheated oven and let bake at 200°C until the surface has browned nicely (about 45 min.).
