Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until softened and beginning to brown. Add the garlic and continue cooking 1 minute longer. Stir in the cream, broth and thyme, and season with the salt and pepper. Add the potatoes and bring to a simmer. Continue cooking until the potatoes are fork-tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

MOM'S SCALLOPED POTATO GRATIN
These scalloped potatoes were one of my favorite foods growing up, but then I went to culinary school and learned, according to classical methods, how it was "supposed" to be made--and that's how I've been making it ever since. But recently, for whatever reason, I went back and tried to recreate my mother's version and was reminded of why I loved hers in the first place.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish with 2 tablespoons butter and set aside.
- Peel potatoes and cut at a 45-degree angle into 1/4-inch thick round slices.
- Arrange 1/3 of the potato slices in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared dish. Season the layer very generously with salt, and sparingly with the freshly ground black pepper, and cayenne, if using. Top evenly with 1/3 of the Cheddar cheese. Repeat this process two more times for a total of three layers of potatoes, except for the last third of the cheese. Slowly and carefully pour in the milk, without upsetting the layers. The milk should almost, but not quite, cover the potatoes.
- Top with remaining Cheddar cheese and place the casserole dish on a sheet pan to catch any drips.
- Bake in the center of the preheated oven until potatoes are tender and the top is well browned and bubbling, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- To achieve a crispy top, make sure to use a baking dish that is not too large. You want the potatoes to be in a single layer, so they can brown evenly.
- If you don't have meat stock on hand, you can use chicken broth or vegetable broth instead. Just be sure to season it well with salt and pepper.
- If you want a richer flavor, you can use a combination of cheeses, such as Gruyère, Comté, and Beaufort.
- To make sure the potatoes are cooked through, insert a knife into the center of the dish. If it comes out clean, the potatoes are done.
- Let the gratin savoyard rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Gratin savoyard is a hearty and delicious dish that is perfect for a winter meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying meal, give gratin savoyard a try.
