Ingredients
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes peeled and thinly sliced
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- ¼ cup flour see note
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
- Sprinkle the flour over the onion and garlic mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for about 1 minute, until the flour is lightly golden.
- Gradually pour in the milk and heavy cream, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens.
- Reduce the heat to low. Add the cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Stir until the cheeses are melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Remove from heat.
- Arrange a single layer of sliced potatoes in the greased baking dish, slightly overlapping them. Pour a portion of the cheese sauce over the potatoes, spreading it evenly.
- Repeat the layering process with the remaining potatoes and cheese sauce, finishing with a layer of sauce on top.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
- Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
