Very typical French accompaniment that you can eat with a red or white meat. In my family we always eat it during Christmas it’s a tradition. Hope you’ll like it !
Ingredients:
- 1.5 kg of potatoes
- 2 garlic gloves
- 30 cl of crème
- 100 g of butter
- 1 l of milk
- Nutmeg
- Salt
- Black pepper
Step 1: Peel, wash and cut the potatoes into thin slices (NB: do not wash them AFTER cutting them, because the starch is necessary at a correct consistency).
Step 2: Chop the garlic very finely.
Step 3: Bring the milk, garlic, salt, pepper and nutmeg to a boil, then dip in the potatoes and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how firm they are.
Step 4: Preheat oven to 180 ° C (thermostat 6) and butter a baking dish.
Step 5: Place the drained potatoes in the dish. Cover them with cream, then arrange the butter on top. Step 6 Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour of cooking.
Enjoy !
