Ingredients

• 6 medium-sized Yukon Gold potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Gruyere cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil (for greasing the dish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil and set aside.

Step 2

Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly into uniform rounds, approximately 1/8 inch thick. Use a mandoline slicer for consistent results, if available.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute to form a roux. Ensure it's smooth and lump-free.

Step 4

Gradually add the milk and heavy cream to the roux, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the mixture thickens slightly.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Remove the saucepan from the heat and set the sauce aside.

Step 6

Layer half of the sliced potatoes evenly in the greased baking dish, slightly overlapping the slices.

Step 7

Pour half of the cream sauce over the potatoes, spreading it evenly with the back of a spoon.

Step 8

Sprinkle half of the Gruyere and Parmesan cheeses over the sauce.

Step 9

Repeat the layering process with the remaining potatoes, cream sauce, and cheeses.

Step 10

Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

Step 11

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling, and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 12

Allow the dish to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional rosemary, if desired, and enjoy!
