potato gratin

i made seafood tomyam for dinner
the kids love it
but i cannot eat seafood
my little girl will scratch here & there
as she has severe eczema
and seafood is a big NO
can you see the link between mommy-baby?
so, this is what mommy had for dinner
(adapted from marshallcavendish mini cookbooks - potatoes)


materials:

• 4 potatoes
• 3 eggs
• 1 3/4cups heavy cream <-- i opt to use milk only
• 2oz gruyere cheese
• 2oz parmesan cheese <-- i used 4oz of parmesan. gruyere is non-avail
• salt, pepper & nutmeg to taste
• topping: 2oz cheese + 1oz diced butter

method:

1. preheat oven 150C & grease gratin dish with butter
2. peel & slice potatoes (1/4inch thick)
3. beat eggs with cream. beat in cheese
4. season with salt, pepper & nutmeg
5. add in sliced potatoes. mix well & ensure potatoes are evenly coated
6. pour mixture into gratin dish. top with topping materials (i totally forgot abt the butter!)
7. bake for 1 1/2hours, or until potatoes are tender
8. serve immediately

its that good.. a portion for 2.. vanished in 1 sitting by 1 small-frame (definitely starving) lady! haha!
