SERVES
Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons butter
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced
- 2-1/2 lbs. Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2-1/2 cups half-and-half
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Pinch of fresh nutmeg, grated
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°. Prepare 8x8x2-inch baking dish by coating the inside lightly with butter. Heat garlic, remaining butter, half-and-half, and salt and pepper in medium saucepan over medium-high heat until it comes to a boil. Reduce heat and cook until mixture thickens, stirring occasionally. This will take about 5 minutes.
Pour into prepared baking dish and grate fresh nutmeg lightly over top. Bake 50 to 60 minutes until lightly browned, basting often. Remove from oven and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
