Potato bake, otherwise known as potatoes au gratin (French for “holy wow this creamy, cheesy potato dish is amazing”), has long been a staple in my life. It causes fights, is jealously guarded, and significantly overindulged in on a regular basis.
Preheat oven to 180ºC (355ºF) and grease a 9×13 casserole dish.
Peel and slice potatoes thinly, and place a layer of potatoes on the bottom. Sprinkle quite liberally with garlic, salt, pepper and a layer of onion slices. Sprinkle over a layer of cheese.
Repeat layering potato, salt, onion, garlic and cheese. Continue layering until you’ve reached the top of the casserole dish, and finish with a layer of potatoes. On the top layer, pour over stock and then cream before sprinkling with more seasoning, and adding the last of the cheese to the top.
Bake for at least 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours, until top is golden and bubbling and potatoes are soft the way through. I would check after 1 hour by sticking a knife in the middle. If it slides in easily, you’re good to go.
