Dubliner Cheesy Garlic Potato Gratin

Dubliner Cheesy Garlic Potato Gratin

This is the perfect Christmas side dish. A delicious dish packed with potatoes, Dubliner Vintage Cheese and garlic – what’s not to love! This tastes great the next day.

Ingredients:

• Butter, for greasing
• 500ml cream
• 3-4 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp ground black pepper
• 5-6 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• 200g Dubliner Vintage Cheese, grated

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan assisted. Generously butter a baking dish (approx. 20cm x 20cm / 25cm x 25cm). Set aside.
2. In a large jug, mix together the cream, garlic, salt & pepper. Set aside.
3. To assemble the gratin, arrange a layer of potatoes in the bottom of the buttered dish, then arrange slices of onion on top of the potatoes and sprinkle with a handful of the grated Dubliner cheese. Repeat these steps so that you have 3 layers of each.
4. Arrange a final layer of potato on top then carefully pour the cream mixture over the potatoes, pour slowly so that the cream pours through the gaps and doesn’t overflow. Tip: Don’t worry if the gratin is sitting right to the top of your dish, or even slightly above, it will settle down as it cooks.
5. Finally, sprinkle the top with remaining Dubliner cheese. Cover with tinfoil and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove the tinfoil and continue baking for another 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender enough that you can easily pierce with a sharp knife.
6. Leave to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
7. This dish can be prepared ahead and kept in the fridge wrapped with clingfilm for 1-2 days before baking.
