Ingredients

  • 3 large russet potatoes peeled
  • 2 cups whipping cream
  • Juice from 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons fresh oregano chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350F and move rack to middle of oven.
  • Chop oregano and grate parmesan cheese.
  • Make the cream mixture by adding lemon juice, chopped oregano, minced garlic, and salt & pepper to the cream (I put everything in a measuring cup so I can pour it easily).
  • Peel potatoes and slice to 1/8 inch thickness (I use a mandoline).
  • Grease a 2 quart baking dish (I used olive oil + paper towel to do this mess-free).
  • Place a single layer of potatoes (slightly overlapping each other) along the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle with about 1/4 of the parmesan and then drizzle about 1/4 of the cream mix over top. Repeat the process until you have four layers.
  • Place in oven and bake (uncovered) for 75-90 minutes or until the top is golden and a knife pierces through easily. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes prior to serving.
