Ingredients

  • 500g bintje or other waxy potatoes

  • 1 cup pure cream

  • sea salt and freshly ground

  • black pepper

  • 20g unsalted butter,melted

Method

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 180C fan-forced (200C conventional).

    2. Peel the potatoes and cut into 2mm thick slices,placing the slices in a bowl and covering them with cream to prevent discolouration. Season the slices with salt and pepper.

    3. Brush the base and sides of a shallow baking tray or gratin dish with the melted butter. Remove the potato slices from the cream and place in a circle,covering the middle with another circle of potato. (If using a rectangular dish,overlap the slices in lines down the dish until about 2-3cm deep.) Drizzle a little cream between each layer,and pour over any remaining cream.

    4. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until lightly browned and tender.
