Garlic Potatoes / Potatoes au Gratin

This recipe is pretty basic, and can be easily tweaked to increase the portions or combine different flavors. It makes a fantastic side dish for just about any dinner.

Ingredients:

• Yukon gold potatoes (thinly sliced) 5 medium potatoes makes enough for 4-6 servings.
• Garlic (crushed) I used 3 cloves.
• Heavy cream - I used 1/2 cup. 
• Cheddar cheese (I recommend extra sharp)
• Salt and pepper

Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 400 F.
• Layer sliced potatoes with crushed garlic in an ovenproof dish. 
• Pour the cream over the potatoes. 
• Sprinkle the top with lots of cheese.
• Bake for 30-40 minutes, until the potatoes are cooked through and the cheese is golden brown and melted. 

Here's what it looks like when it's assembled. 

And when it comes out of the oven. Yum!
