Recipe type: Side dish
Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • 2 Lbs Russet / baking potatoes
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon dried rosemary
  • ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ¾ cup shredded Montery Jack or other flavorful white cheese
  • 2½ tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
  1. Grease a 9" x 9" baking dish.
  2. Mix together salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme.
  3. Peel and slice the potatoes, about ⅛ inch thick, and place in a bowl.
  4. Sprinkle salt and herb mix over potato slices and stir well until all of the slices are covered on both sides. Set aside. Liquid will be dripping from the potatoes to the bottom of the bowl.
  5. Mix together the cheeses and set aside.
  6. Whisk together sour cream, heavy cream, and salt until smooth. Set aside.
  7. Drain away the liquid from the potatoes.
  8. Layer half of the potatoes in the pan.
  9. Sprinkle half of the cheese over the potatoes.
  10. Layer the rest of the potatoes.
  11. Pour the cream sauce on top, spread it out evenly and shake the pan a little bit to allow the sauce to drip down between layers.
  12. Sprinkle the rest of the cheese evenly on top of the cream sauce.
  13. Bake at 350 degrees, uncovered for 45-50 minutes until hot, bubbly, and has started to brown somewhat.
  14. Cover with aluminum foil and bake an additional 30-35 minutes until potatoes are tender. Check with a sharp knife now and again toward the end.
