Garlic & Herb Dauphinoise Potatoes
Serves 4 - 6 as a sideIngredients
270ml pot Vegan Cream Alternative (such as Oatly)
350ml Unsweetened Plant Milk (such as soya or oat)
130g Honestly Tasty Garlic & Herb Cheese
Thyme sprigs, leaves picked
2 Garlic Cloves, crushed
4 floury potatoes (about 1kg), peeled and finely sliced
Method
Pre-heat the oven to 160C
Pour the milk and cream into a saucepan and add thyme sprigs and crushed garlic. Warm slowly over a low heat until the mixture starts to bubble, but doesn't boil. Once warmed through, add most of the crumbled Garlic & Herb cheese and stir continuously until it melts - take off the heat.
Arrange the thinly sliced potatoes (time to use 'that' side of the cheese grater!) across a medium sized baking dish - gauge the size so that you have a few layers - seasoning each layer generously with salt and pepper.
Pour the mixture over the potatoes, making sure to submerge them.
Bake, uncovered, for approximately 75 mins, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced through the middle with a knife.
Remove from the oven to scatter the rest of your cheese over the potatoes and then bake for a further 15 mins - the top should be lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately, as part of the perfect plant-based Sunday lunch!
