Ingredients

• 4 medium-sized Yukon Gold potatoes
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.75 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup Low-fat milk
• 0.5 cup Chicken or vegetable stock
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch or similarly sized baking dish with the olive oil.

Step 2

Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin, even rounds, approximately 1/8-inch thick.

Step 3

Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.

Step 4

In a small saucepan, combine the low-fat milk, chicken or vegetable stock, minced garlic, thyme leaves, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it is warm but not boiling. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Layer one-third of the sliced potatoes evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle a third of the Parmesan cheese over the potatoes. Repeat the process with two more layers of potatoes, finishing with Parmesan cheese on top.

Step 6

Carefully pour the warm milk mixture evenly over the layered potatoes, ensuring the liquid covers most of the slices. Gently press down on the potatoes with a spatula to compact them slightly.

Step 7

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Then, remove the foil and continue to bake for another 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.

Step 8

Allow the gratin to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
