The traditional version of this dish includes Swiss or Gruyère cheese, but you can also make it with other cheeses, such as mozzarella and cheddar in this recipe.

INGREDIENTS:

STEP ONE

Peel the potatoes and cut them as thin as possible using a mandolin. Press the garlic cloves with a garlic press.

STEP TWO

Heat the butter in a saucepan. Add the minced garlic and fry until the garlic is golden and fragrant.

STEP THREE

Add the cream cheese, cream or whole milk, 1 cup of the shredded cheese, salt, pepper, and oregano. Cook on low until well combined.

STEP FOUR

Mix the sliced potatoes with the cream sauce. Pour all of it into the baking dish and move around to form layers.

– Don’t be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. For example, sharp cheddar or Gruyère can add an extra depth of flavor. Other great options are Swiss or Gouda. For a smoky flavor, use smoked Gouda or cheddar.
