Ingredients

  • 800 g Agria potatoes (Peeled and thinly sliced, approximately 3 mm thick; reserve a few attractive slices for the top.)
  • 50 g Butter (Used partly to sweat the onions and partly in small knobs for assembling and topping.)
  • 2 Onions (Thinly sliced.)
  • 1 gousse Garlic (Thinly sliced.)
  • 50 cl Vegetable or chicken stock (Use hot; pour in just enough to come level with the potatoes without submerging them.)
  • Salt (Add between the layers, to taste.)
  • Pepper (Add between the layers, to taste.)

Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 180 °C.

  2. 2

    Peel the potatoes, then slice them thinly, approximately 3 mm thick. Reserve a few of the most attractive slices to finish assembling the dish.

  3. 3

    Thinly slice the onions and garlic clove.

  4. 4

    Melt part of the 50 g of butter in a frying pan. Add the onions and garlic, then sweat for 5 minutes without browning.

  5. 5

    Begin assembling the dish in a gratin dish with a layer of potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.

  6. 6

    Scatter some onions over the potatoes, then add a few small knobs of butter.

  7. 7

    Pour a little hot stock over this layer, then repeat the alternating layers of potatoes, salt, pepper, onions, butter, and stock until all the ingredients have been used.

  8. 8

    Finish with a layer of potatoes, using the reserved attractive slices, then distribute the remaining butter over the top.

  9. 9

    Pour in the remaining hot stock until it comes level with the potatoes, just enough to moisten the preparation without submerging it.

  10. 10

    Bake the dish covered for the first 30 minutes.

  11. 11

    Remove the cover and continue cooking for the final 30 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and lightly browned.

  12. 12

    Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes
