Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tbsp of soft butter
  • 1 onion, sliced thinly
  • 2 teaspoons garlic
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt and pepper
  • 6 potatoes "Yukon Gold"
  • 2 cups grated Swiss cheese
  • 2 cups 35% cream
  • 1 pinch of nutmeg
  • 1 baking dish (approx 8" by 8")

Directions

Peel and thinly slice the potatoes and onions to 1/8" in thickness.

In a large bowl, toss the potatoes, onions, garlic, herbs, olive oil and half of the grated cheese. Season properly.

Butter the baking dish and place the above combination in it.

Top with the second half of the cheese and the cream. Press down with your hands to make sure the cream spreads over the surface of the ingredients.

Cover with a lid or tin foil and bake for 90 minutes at 325F. Remove the cover and continue baking for another 30 minutes or until the dish has turned a golden brown colour.
