INGREDIENTS:
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 small white or yellow onion, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 large garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup vegetable stock
- 1 cups whole milk
- 1 teaspoons Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, divided
- 2 pounds Russet Potatoes, sliced thin into 1/8-inch rounds
- 1 1/2 cups of freshly grated cheese, Cheddar and or Gruyere.
- 1/4 cup of freshly grated Parmesan Cheese, extra for serving
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 400°. Grease a 9×9 inch baking pan and cover with cooking spray; set aside.
- Melt butter in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add onion, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent. Add garlic for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 more minute. Gradually pour in the stock, and whisk until combined. Add in the milk, salt, pepper, and and stir until combined. Continue cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes, then remove from the heat and set aside.
- Spread half of the sliced potatoes in an even layer on the bottom of the pan. Top evenly with half of the cream sauce. Sprinkle evenly with 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, and all of the Parmesan cheese. Top evenly with the remaining sliced potatoes, the other half of the cream sauce, and the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.
- Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. The sauce should be nice and bubbly around the edges. Then remove the foil and bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through.
- Transfer the pan to a cooling rack, and sprinkle with thyme and extra Parmesan. Serve warm.
