Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Line the bottom and sides of an 8x8x2 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Rub the parchment paper with butter and a little bit of the garlic. Lay the potatoes in overlapping rows to cover the bottom of the parchment paper. Sprinkle with some of the cheese and garlic. Repeat the layering process until all the potatoes, cheese and garlic have been used.

Whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes. Press down on the potatoes to distribute the egg mixture.

Cover the dish with parchment paper and bake for 1 1/2 hours. (Remove the paper from the top for the last 20 minutes to brown the top.)
