Ingredients

• 4 medium potatoes
• 3 medium tomatoes
• 1.5 cups heavy cream
• 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with butter.

Step 2

Wash the potatoes and tomatoes. Thinly slice the potatoes and tomatoes into even rounds, about 1/8-inch thick. Use a mandoline slicer if available for uniform slices.

Step 3

Peel and finely mince the garlic.

Step 4

In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, but not browned. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Layer one-third of the sliced potatoes in the bottom of the prepared baking dish, slightly overlapping the slices. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt, black pepper, and a small amount of fresh thyme.

Step 6

Add a single layer of tomato slices over the potatoes. Drizzle a small amount of the garlic olive oil over the tomatoes.

Step 7

Repeat the layering process twice more, ending with a layer of potatoes on top.

Step 8

Pour the heavy cream evenly over the entire dish, letting it seep through the layers.

Step 9

Top with an even layer of shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 10

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.

Step 11

Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly, and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 12

Let the gratin rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra fresh thyme if desired.
