Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the flour and cook for another minute, stirring constantly.

  3. 3

    Add Cream and Cheese

    Gradually whisk in the heavy cream. Continue to whisk until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted. Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

  4. 4

    Layer the Potatoes

    In a greased baking dish, layer half of the potato slices. Pour half of the cheese sauce over the potatoes. Repeat with the remaining potatoes and cheese sauce.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Let the dish cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with sliced green onions if desired.
