Ingredients

• 1000 grams Potatoes
• 300 grams Cantal cheese
• 50 grams Butter
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin rounds, approximately 5mm thick.

Step 2

Grate or finely chop the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Grate the Cantal cheese and set it aside.

Step 4

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is melted and foaming, add the garlic and sauté for about one minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the sliced potatoes to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and stir to combine with the garlic butter.

Step 6

Flatten the potatoes into a single layer and cook, covered, for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and lightly golden on the edges.

Step 7

Once the potatoes are cooked, sprinkle the grated Cantal cheese evenly over the potatoes.

Step 8

Cover the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and everything is bubbly and golden.

Step 9

Finely chop the fresh parsley. Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the parsley over the truffade.

Step 10

Serve hot, directly from the skillet, as a main dish or hearty side.
