Potato Gratin with Cream

Thinly sliced potatoes baked slowly in garlic-scented cream until tender, bronzed at the edges, and luxuriously soft beneath a delicate crust. This classic gratin dauphinois is a quietly elegant French side dish for roast meats or a green salad.

Zubereitung

1
Heat the oven to 160°C. Rub a 2-litre shallow baking dish with the halved garlic clove, then coat it evenly with the softened butter.
2
Warm the cream in a saucepan over low heat with the grated garlic, thyme, salt, and white pepper for 10 minutes, just until steaming; do not let it boil.
3
Arrange one-third of the potato slices in overlapping rows in the prepared dish. Pour over one-third of the warm cream, then repeat twice, finishing with cream on the surface.

4
Press the potato layers gently with the back of a spatula so the cream reaches the edges. Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 50 minutes, until a knife slides into the center with slight resistance.
5
Remove the foil and continue baking for 20–25 minutes, until the top is deeply golden and bubbling and the potatoes are completely tender when pierced in the center.

6
Rest the gratin uncovered for 15 minutes so the cream thickens and the layers settle. Cut into portions and serve warm.

Warum dieses Rezept gelingt

A low, steady bake lets the potato starch enrich the cream while the garlic perfumes the dish without overpowering it. Resting finishes the set, creating tender layers with a clean, sliceable texture.
