WARM ONION-POTATO GRATIN



Warm Onion-Potato Gratin image

Categories     Cheese     Onion     Potato     Side     Bake     Casserole/Gratin     Winter     Bon Appétit     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup (packed) grated Gruy&ère cheese (about 4 ounces)
8 tablespoons (packed) freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 2 ounces)
2/3 cup whipping cream
1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
3/4 pound onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Combine Yukon Gold potatoes and sliced onions in heavy large saucepan. Add enough water to cover. Bring water to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are almost tender, about 3 minutes. Drain potato-onion mixture well.
  • Arrange half of potato-onion mixture in 11x7-inch glass baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sprinkle mixture with 1/3 cup Gruy&ère cheese, then 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Arrange remaining potato-onion mixture atop cheeses. Pour cream over. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then remaining 2/3 cup Gruy&ère cheese and 6 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.) Preheat oven to 400°F. Bake gratin uncovered until cream thickens, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven. Preheat broiler. Broil gratin until top is golden, about 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For a creamy and smooth gratin, use starchy potatoes like Yukon Gold or russets. Avoid waxy potatoes like red potatoes, as they tend to hold their shape and don't break down as well.
  • Slice the potatoes thinly: This will help them cook evenly and create a more delicate texture.
  • Layer the potatoes and other ingredients evenly: This will ensure that all parts of the gratin cook evenly.
  • Use a flavorful cheese: A good Gruyère or Parmesan cheese will add a lot of flavor to the gratin.
  • Don't overcook the gratin: The potatoes should be tender but still slightly firm. Overcooking will make them mushy.

Conclusion:

Potato gratin is a classic French dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy, cheesy interior and crispy, browned top, it's the perfect comfort food for any occasion. Follow these tips to make the best potato gratin: choose the right potatoes, slice them thinly, layer them evenly, use a flavorful cheese, and don't overcook it. With a little practice, you'll be able to make a potato gratin that is sure to impress your friends and family.
