Ingredients (12)

2.2 lb russet potato sliced
4 oz onion finely chopped
3 oz mozzarella cheese shredded
2 tbsp heavy cream
1/2 tbsp butter
1 cup whole milk
2 tbsp garlic minced
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp thyme dried
1 cup unsalted chicken broth

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Melt 1/2 tbsp butter over medium heat in a pot, then sautée 4 oz onions and 2 tbsp garlic for about 3 minutes, or until translucent.

Stir in 4 tbsp flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tbsp pepper, 1 cup chicken stock, 1 cup milk, and 2 tbsp cream, and cook for 3 minutes, or until it starts to bubble.

Arrange the 2.2 lb potato slices in the casserole dish in even layers and pour the sauce over them. Using a spatula, fill all visible gaps with onion bits to get a nice, flat surface.

Cover with tin foil and bake for 1 hour.

Uncover and sprinkle 3 oz shredded cheese on top. Broil for about 3-4 minutes, or until it is golden brown on the surface.

Sprinkle 1/2 tsp thyme and serve.
