Potato

How To Make It

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees fan-forced.
2. In a large frying pan over a medium heat add a splash of olive oil, sauté the onion for 5 minutes or until translucent.
3. Add in ½ the garlic and thyme and sauté for a further 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
4. Place the potatoes, milk, and cream, other half of garlic, nutmeg, salt and pepper in a large saucepan and bring to the boil, stirring occasionally to ensure it doesn’t stick.
5. As soon as the mixture comes to the boil, remove from the heat, stir in the onion mixture and then pour the potato mixture into a deep rectangular oven dish. Scatter the cheese over the top and then even the mixture out across the baking dish with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper.
6. Place into the oven and cook for 30-40 minutes until golden brown on top.
7. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes then serve.
