Scalloped Potatoes and Ham

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease an 11 x 7-inch baking dish; set aside. In a Dutch oven or other large heavy-bottomed pot, melt butter over medium-high heat. Whisk in cream, garlic, and salt. Add peeled, sliced potatoes.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer (uncovered) for about 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the sauce thickens. Gently stir the potatoes periodically as they cook. Add the ham to the potato mixture.

Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with grated cheese.

Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.
