POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• 1. Peel and wash the potatoes and slice them into rounds 1/8 inch thick, using a mandoline, the slicing disk of a food processor, or a sharp knife.
• 2. Generously butter a 9 by 12-inch heavy shallow baking dish, preferably earthenware or cast-enamel, or an oval gratin dish of comparable size. (You can also use a 12-inch cast-iron skillet.) Rub the dish with half of the crushed garlic.
• 3. In a small saucepan, bring the half-and-half to a simmer with the remaining garlic and season generously with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• 4. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Arrange the potatoes in one overlapping layer on the bottom of the dish. Season the layer generously with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Arrange two more layers on top, seasoning each layer liberally. You might not need all the potatoes. Press the layers down to compact them. Pour in enough half-and-half to come up just a little below the top layer of potatoes. Set the baking dish on a larger baking sheet, cover with foil, and bake until the potatoes feel tender when pierced with a knife, about 1 hour.
• 5. Raise the oven temperature to 425°F, remove the foil, and bake until the top begins to brown, about 10 minutes. Pour just enough cream to cover the top, dab it with crème fraîche, if using, and sprinkle evenly with the Parmesan. Bake until the top is brown and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let the potatoes stand for 10 minutes to absorb the cream. Cut into squares and serve.

POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Pour half of the heavy cream and half of the milk into a shallow skillet. Stir in the garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and the bay leaf. Slice the potatoes into disks about 1/8 inch thick and place in the pan. Barely cover the potatoes with the remaining cream and milk.
• Place the potatoes over medium-low heat and simmer for 1 hour. To avoid curdling, do not let the mixture boil, and do not allow the potatoes to stick to the bottom of the pan -- they will scorch. The potatoes can be prepared ahead of time to this point and kept at room temperature.
• Thirty minutes before serving, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Transfer the potato mixture into a shallow baking pan and shake to distribute evenly. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the potatoes, place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Serve with a veal chop, a steak or any other roasted meat.
