Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Dry white wine
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 to taste Salt and black pepper
Instructions
Peel and slice the Yukon Gold potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Rinse and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a large pot, place the potato slices and cover them with water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until the potatoes are slightly tender but still hold their shape. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet or saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Sprinkle the flour over the butter and garlic mixture, whisking constantly to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Slowly pour in the white wine while whisking to prevent lumps. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2 minutes to let the alcohol cook off.
Add the heavy cream and broth to the skillet, whisking until the sauce is smooth and begins to thicken, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a greased baking dish, layer the cooked potato slices. Pour the cream wine sauce evenly over the potatoes, ensuring all slices are coated.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the sauce is bubbly and slightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
