Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

125ml stock (made with a cube - whatever you've got)
carton double cream
150ml milk
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 bay leaf
a knob of butter, for greasing
800g potato, peeled and thinly sliced
2 leeks, washed and thinly sliced
175g sliced ham, chopped (optional)
85g cheddar, grated

Steps:

  • Pour the stock, cream and milk into a small saucepan, add the garlic and bay leaf and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat, cover and let the flavours infuse while you get on with the rest of the dish.
  • Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4/fan 160C. Butter a 2 litre gratin dish well. Mix the potatoes, leeks and ham (if using) together in the dish, and spread out in an even layer. Pour over the stock mixture and tuck the bay leaf in the middle. Season and sprinkle with the cheese.
  • Stand the dish on a baking tray to catch any spills. Loosely cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Test the potatoes with a knife - they should be just beginning to soften.

Cashew Cauliflower and Leek Gratin image

My family loves this cauliflower gratin. It's different than scalloped potatoes and healthier with the added vegetables, and the cashew milk and cashew nuts add richness. Eliminate the white wine, if desired. -Nancy Heishman, Las Vegas, Nevada

Tips:

  • Use a good quality leek: Leeks can vary in flavor, so it's important to choose one that is fresh and has a mild, sweet flavor.
  • Don't overcook the cabbage and leeks: They should be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
  • Use a flavorful cheese: Gruyère or Parmesan cheese are both good choices, but you can use any type of cheese that you like.
  • Serve the gratin immediately: This dish is best enjoyed when it is hot and bubbly.
