Gratin Dauphinois

1kg Maris piper potatoes

400ml double cream

200ml milk

3 garlic cloves + 1 for rubbing

Salt & pepper

90g frozen salted butter

1. Peel your potatoes and slice as thinly as you can manage I used a mandolin but a sharp will do.

2. Season with salt and pepper

3. Mix the cream, milk and garlic

4. Layer up the potatoes and half way through grate on half of your butter pour in the cream when it fills up let it soak in and settle then add the rest. Finish with more grated butter

5. Into an oven at 150c for 1 hour then reduce the heat to 130c for a further 2 hours if the top is looking a bit crispy cover with a lid or foil.

6. Let it rest for 15 mins then serve.
