Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg, freshly grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Peel the potatoes and slice them evenly into thin rounds, about 1/8-inch thick. Use a mandoline slicer if available for consistent slices.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly to form a roux.
Gradually pour in the milk and heavy cream, whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg, letting the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.
Spread a thin layer of the Alfredo sauce at the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Layer one-third of the potato slices evenly over the sauce, overlapping slightly.
Pour one-third of the Alfredo sauce over the potatoes and sprinkle one-third of the mozzarella cheese on top.
Repeat the layering process two more times, finishing with a final layer of sauce and mozzarella cheese on top.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Let the dish cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
