Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 cup heavy cream (or whole milk/half-and-half)
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a medium-sized ceramic baking dish.
  2. Thinly slice the Yukon gold potatoes using a mandolin or sharp knife.
  3. In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the garlic until fragrant. Stir in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes.
  4. Gradually add cream while stirring until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Mix in Parmesan cheese (if using), thyme, salt, and pepper.
  5. Remove from heat and combine sliced potatoes with the sauce in a mixing bowl.
  6. Arrange potato slices upright in the greased baking dish, pouring any remaining sauce over them and topping with extra cheese if desired.
