Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash, peel, and slice the Russet potatoes into thin rounds (about 1/8 inch thick).

  3. 3

    Make the Cream Mixture

    In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute). Pour in heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.

Layering and Baking

  1. 4

    Layer the Potatoes

    In a greased baking dish, arrange a layer of sliced potatoes. Pour a portion of the cream mixture over the potatoes, then sprinkle with sharp cheddar cheese. Repeat the layering process until all potatoes and cream are used, finishing with a layer of cheese.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Topping

    In a small bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and olive oil until well combined. Spread this mixture evenly over the top layer of cheese.

  3. 6

    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 15-20 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender.

  4. 7

    Serve

    Let the au gratin potatoes cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your dish!
