Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 Pinch nutmeg
  • 2 pounds russet potatoes peeled and cut into 1/8-inch thick slices
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese
  • 0.25 cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • 0.5 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Method
 

  1. Whisk together heavy cream, garlic, thyme and nutmeg over medium heat until heated through, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Add a layer of potatoes to a 4-qt slow cooker in an overlapping pattern; season with salt and pepper. Pour 1/3 cup cream mixture over potatoes; sprinkle with Gruyere. Repeat to create 2 more layers.
  3. Cover and cook on high heat for 4-5 hours, or until potatoes are tender. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Cover and cook until melted, about 5 minutes.
  4. Remove lid and let potatoes rest for 15 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
  5. Serve, garnished with thyme, if desired.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use a combination of Gruyere and sharp cheddar cheese.
