Preparation

What You Need

2 large onions, sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tbsp (30 ml) butter
4 large baking potatoes
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) grated, mild or
medium Cheddar cheese, (approx 6 oz/175 g)
1 1/2 tsp (7 ml) Salt
1/2 tsp (2 ml) pepper
1/4 tsp (1 ml) nutmeg
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) milk
1/2 cup (125 ml) whipping cream or
additional milk
2 tbsp (30 ml) chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Sauté onions and garlic in butter in a large skillet until tender and browned - about 5 min. Reserve.

Meanwhile, peel potatoes and grate into shreds. Rinse shreds with cold water and drain well. Combine potatoes with cooked onion mixture, cheese, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add milk, cream and parsley.

Place mixture in a 3 qt (3 L) buttered baking dish or casserole. Bake, uncovered, in a preheated 400 °F (200 °C) oven for 1 to 1 1/4 hours.

Allow to rest 10 min before serving.


Tips

For a very smooth and creamy texture use whipping cream and bake the full 1 1/4 hours.
