Ingredients

• 6 medium Russet potatoes
• 1.5 cups Heavy cream
• 3 tablespoons Butter
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 teaspoons Thyme
• 1 teaspoon Rosemary
• 1 tablespoon Parsley
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a medium-sized baking dish with butter and set aside.

Step 2

Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick. Use a mandoline slicer for uniformity if you have one.

Step 3

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the heavy cream, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan. Stir the mixture and let it heat gently for 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Arrange a single layer of potato slices in the prepared baking dish, slightly overlapping them. Sprinkle a pinch of parsley and a bit of Parmesan cheese over the layer.

Step 6

Pour a small amount of the cream mixture evenly over the layer of potatoes. Repeat this process, creating alternating layers of potatoes, herbs, Parmesan, and cream until all ingredients are used up. The top layer should have some parsley and Parmesan for a golden crust.

Step 7

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, and the top is golden and bubbly.

Step 9

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired and serve warm.
