Ingredients

• 6 medium Potatoes
• 1.5 cups Heavy cream
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin, even slices (about 1/8-inch thick) using a knife or mandoline slicer.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Heat over medium-low until warm but not boiling, then remove from heat.

Step 4

Spread one-third of the sliced potatoes evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 5

Pour one-third of the warm cream mixture over the potatoes, then sprinkle one-third of the shredded cheddar cheese on top.

Step 6

Repeat the layering process twice more, ending with a final layer of cheese on top.

Step 7

Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top layer, and sprinkle paprika if desired for added color and flavor.

Step 8

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly, and the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 10

Let the potato bake cool slightly before serving. Enjoy as a delicious side dish or a comforting main course.
