Ingredients

• 6 medium (approximately 3 lbs) Russet potatoes
• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Half-and-half
• 2 large, minced Garlic cloves
• 1.5 cups (shredded) Gruyère cheese
• 1 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (optional, for garnish) Chives

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with the tablespoon of unsalted butter.

Step 2

Peel the russet potatoes and slice them into thin, uniform rounds (about 1/8 inch thick). A mandoline slicer is recommended for consistency.

Step 3

In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, half-and-half, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Heat the mixture until it is warm but not boiling. Remove from heat.

Step 4

Layer half of the potato slices in the prepared baking dish, slightly overlapping them.

Step 5

Pour half of the warm cream mixture evenly over the potatoes, then sprinkle 3/4 cup of the shredded Gruyère cheese and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese over the layer.

Step 6

Repeat with the remaining potato slices, layering them evenly. Pour the remaining cream mixture across the top and sprinkle the remaining Gruyère, cheddar, and all of the Parmesan cheese over the final layer.

Step 7

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling. Use a knife to check if the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 9

Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before serving. This helps the layers set.

Step 10

Optionally, garnish with chopped chives before serving for added color and freshness. Serve hot.
