Description

Ingredients

Scale

2 pounds Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, peeled & sliced thinly

1 tablespoon butter

3 cloves garlic, minced

1.5 cups heavy/whipping cream

1 tablespoon Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning

1 cup freshly grated cheddar cheese

1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese


Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and place rack in the middle.

2. Grate cheese and slice potatoes thinly using a mandoline.

3. Melt butter in a saucepan, add garlic, and cook 30 seconds.

4. Stir in cream and Cajun seasoning until blended; remove from heat.

5. Layer half the potatoes, half the cream, and half the cheese in an 8×8 dish.

6. Repeat layers, finishing with cheese on top.

7. Bake uncovered 70–75 minutes until golden and tender.

8. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
