This simple recipe allows the richness of potatoes and cream to shine through unadorned, and it is easily assembled. A gratin dish is not necessary; try using a cast-iron skillet. (For everything you need to know to make perfect potatoes, visit our potato guide.)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Butter a medium gratin dish. Line bottom with a layer of Yukon Gold potatoes. Sprinkle with a little thyme and nutmeg. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and pour over a little cream. Add a layer of sweet potato slices, and repeat with the thyme, nutmeg, salt, pepper and cream. Continue layering, ending with sweet potatoes, thyme, nutmeg, salt, pepper and cream.
- Bake in oven for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Cover with aluminum foil if top gets too dark.

[email protected]I'm not a big fan of potatoes, but this dish was surprisingly good. The potatoes were soft and fluffy, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I would definitely make this again.
