Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat and Prepare

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with butter.

  2. 2

    Slice the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly (about 1/8 inch thick) using a mandoline or sharp knife.

  3. 3

    Layer the Gratin

    In the greased baking dish, arrange a layer of potato slices. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, minced garlic, fresh thyme, and a layer of grated Gruyère cheese. Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.

  4. 4

    Add Cream

    Pour the heavy cream evenly over the layered potatoes, ensuring it seeps through the layers.

  5. 5

    Season and Bake

    Sprinkle paprika on top for extra flavor. Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

  6. 6

    Crisp the Top

    After 45 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.

  7. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Let the gratin cool for a few minutes before serving. Cut into squares and enjoy!
