- Repeat the process up to the top of the gratin dish.
- In a bowl, mix the milk and cream.
- Pour the mixture into the gratin dish until it barely covers the potatoes.
- Cut the remaining butter into small cubes and spread it over the potatoes.
- Place in the oven and cook the gratin for 2 to 2.5 hours or until it is golden brown.
- Monitor the gratin dauphinois regularly to prevent the top from burning.
- To test the cooking of the gratin dauphinois, the tip of a knife should penetrate the layers of potatoes without difficulty.
