Hasselback Potato Gratin - Creamy & Delicious Take on a New Potato Recipe

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

gruyere cheese

🥗Healthier: Swiss cheese

💰Cheaper: cheddar cheese

Swiss cheese provides a similar melt without the cost of gruyere.

parmesan cheese

💰Cheaper: pecorino cheese

Pecorino is often less expensive and has a similar flavor profile.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly.

Slice the potatoes thinly (about 1/8 inch) without cutting all the way through, leaving the bottom intact.

Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and add minced garlic, cooking until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

In a bowl, combine heavy cream, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, and fresh thyme.

Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and season with salt and pepper.

Pour the cream mixture evenly over the potatoes, ensuring it seeps into the slices.

Sprinkle grated gruyere cheese and parmesan cheese generously on top of the potatoes.

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.

Garnish with chopped chives before serving.
