Dry with kitchen paper and season well with salt and pepper (potatoes soak up a lot of salt while cooking, so be generous). Keep to one side.

3 CHEESE AU GRATIN POTATOES WITH BACON

Steps:

• PREHEAT OVEN AT 400F.
• Slice potatoes and put them in water. (I slice them with a slicer because if you cut them by hand, OBVIOUSLY they will be way too thick when you layer them!).
• Melt butter in a LARGE saucepan and add heavy cream, the parsley, garlic powder and onion powder. Bring to a SOFT boil.
• When (soft) boiling, TURN OFF. Add sliced potatoes and let them sit for 10-15 minutes (this is to let it cook a little bit to cut off the oven time!).
• In a BUTTERED lasagna pan, make one thin layer of potatoes. Then add a layer of grated parmesan cheese, mozzerella, asiago and the crumbled bacon, and evenly disburse ONE LADLE of the cream on top of the potatoes. Continue this step until you reach 1 inch from the top of the pan.
• POUR the cream inside the pan, enough to cover the potatoes.
• Top with a little more cheese and COVER, but leave one side OPEN to let the steam vent.
• after 35 minutes, check the potatoes. If they are not soft yet, continue again for 15 more minutes.
• UNCOVER then cook another 15 minutes.
• Let stand and the sauce will thicken.
