Ingredients

2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup whole milk

2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese

1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.

2. Arrange half of the sliced potatoes in an even layer in the prepared dish, overlapping slightly.

7. Layer the remaining potatoes over the sauce and pour the rest of the cheese sauce on top, smoothing with a spatula.

8. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.

9. Let it cool for 10 minutes before garnishing with fresh parsley and serving.
