Steps

• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• In a large bowl, combine the sliced potatoes, minced garlic, grated Gruyere cheese, heavy cream, melted butter, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mix well to coat the potatoes evenly.
• Grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
• Transfer the potato mixture to the baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
• Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes.
• Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender.

Tips

• For a richer flavor, you can add some grated Parmesan cheese on top before baking.
• If you prefer a crispier top, broil the gratin for a few minutes at the end.
