Creamy Dijon Garlic Potatoes Dauphinoise Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375F (190C).
• Rub a large 3-qt. (3-l) baking dish about 3 1/2 inches deep with a split garlic clove and butter generously.
• Chop the garlic.
• Using a mandolin or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes as thinly as possible, about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick. Blot the slices dry with paper towels.
• Spread a layer of potatoes in the prepared dish, slightly overlapping them if desired, and sprinkle with salt & pepper; cover evenly with a small amount of cream, and sprinkle with a little chopped garlic (sprinkle layers and top with grated gruyere cheese, if using).
• Repeat the layering until all the potatoes and garlic are used and the potatoes are completely submerged by the cream.
• Dot with small bits of butter.
• Bake in the hot preheated oven for a good hour, then increase the temperature to 400F (200C) for the last 15-20 minutes until the potatoes have absorbed all of the cream and the top has turned a nice golden brown in color.
• Serve in the cooking dish straight from the oven, sprinkling each portion with some of the chives and parsley.
• Menu idea: Serve with steak, peaches in red wine and a beaujolais wine to drink!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5.
• Tip 500ml double cream, 500ml milk and 3 garlic cloves into a large saucepan and bring to a simmer.
• Slice 8 large potatoes very finely, about 3-4mm, add them to the cream and simmer for 3 mins until just cooked.
• Gently stir to separate the potato and stop it sinking and catching on the bottom of the pan.
• Remove the potatoes with a slotted spoon and place in a wide shallow ovenproof dish so that they are about 5cm in depth.
• Pour over the garlic infused cream (discarding the garlic) - just enough to seep through the layers and leave a little moisture on the surface.
• Scatter over 100g grated gruyère cheese, if using, then bake for 30 mins until the potatoes are soft and browned - increase the heat for 5 mins if not brown enough.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200C / 180C Fan / Gas Mark 5. Grease the dish you will be cooking in.
• Peel potatoes and slice to roughly the thickness of a pound coin.
• Peel and chop the onion.
• Crush the garlic and finely chop the herbs and mix in with the cream.
• Layer the potatoes on the bottom of the dish you will cook them in and pour a small amount of cream over them.
• Sprinkle some of the onion on top of the potato and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Repeat steps 5 and 6 until all the potato and onion is gone then pour the remainder of the cream on top.
• When ready to cook, place in the oven for approximately 1 hour or until the top is crisp and golden assuring that the potato is cooked thoroughly.
• Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F
• Place the sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water to prevent them from browning. Rinse, then pat dry with kitchen paper.

• Add the potatoes, cover and simmer for 10 mins until just tender. Season well.
• Transfer to a buttered, ovenproof dish and sprinkle over the cheese.
