Ingredients

2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced

2 cups Gruyere cheese, grated

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup whole milk

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

1 teaspoon nutmeg

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons butter (for greasing)

Fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, minced garlic, fresh thyme, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined.

Layer half of the thinly sliced potatoes in the bottom of the greased baking dish, slightly overlapping them.

Pour half of the cream mixture over the layer of potatoes. Top with half of the grated Gruyere cheese.

Repeat with the remaining potatoes, cream mixture, and Gruyere cheese, creating a second layer.

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

After 45 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden and bubbly.

Once baked, let the dish cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped chives for a fresh touch.

- Presentation Tips: Serve the scalloped potatoes in individual ramekins for a rustic touch or scoop them neatly into bowls. Garnish each serving with a sprinkle of chives and an extra sprinkle of Gruyere for an appealing look.
