Gratin Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Peel and thinly slice the potatoes and carrots. A mandolin slicer works well for this task.

  3. 3

    Make the Cream Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream, truffle oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  4. 4

    Layer the Gratin

    In a greased baking dish, arrange a layer of potato slices, followed by a layer of carrot slices. Pour a portion of the cream mixture over the layer, and sprinkle some Gruyère and Parmesan cheese. Repeat the layering until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Let the gratin cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help it set and make slicing easier.
