Scalloped Potatoes with Creme Fraiche Recipe image

Provided by cbingham

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cloves garlic, smashed
3 tbs unsalted butter
3 lbs potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Yellow Finn
3 cups half&half
1/2 cup creme fraiche
2 tbs flour
2 tsps chopped thyme
1/8-1/4 tsp ground mace
Kosher salt & pepper
1/4 cup chopped chives

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Rub the garlic all over the inside of a 3-quart baking dish, then mince it. Grease dish with about 1/2 tbs butter. Slice the potatoes on a mandolin. In a large saucepan combine the minced garlic, the remaining 2-1/2 tbs butter, half&half, creme fraiche, flour, thyme, mace, 2-1/2 tsps salt & pepper to taste. Bring to a boil over medium high heat and cook, stirring, until mixture thickens, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the chives and transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish, shaking it to distribute evenly. Bake uncovered until potatoes are tender, about 1 hour 5 minutes, occasionally spooning some of the liquid over the top. Let cool about 10 minutes before serving. *Can be made in individual ramekins, bake about 40 minutes.

These scalloped potatoes were a disappointment. They were bland and lacked flavor. I would not recommend this recipe.

Overall, I thought this was a good recipe. The potatoes were creamy and cheesy, and the crispy top was a nice touch. I would make it again, but I would probably make a few changes to the recipe.

The potatoes were a bit undercooked for my liking. I would have baked them for a few minutes longer.

These scalloped potatoes were a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred using regular milk instead of creme fraiche.

I love the crispy top on these potatoes! I also appreciate that this recipe uses creme fraiche instead of heavy cream. It makes the dish a little lighter, but still just as delicious.

I was a bit skeptical about using creme fraiche in this recipe, but I'm so glad I did! It added a richness and depth of flavor that I wouldn't have gotten from using regular milk or cream.
