Potatoes Gratin by Tyler

This is a recipe I would like to add to my cookbooks here on Zaar. Just about the best comfort food there is, one can add ham to this for a 1 dish meal. Can add sharp cheddar also.

Ingredients

• 2  lbs baking potatoes, peeled and sliced paper-thin

• 1  cup  grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl combine all the ingredients, tossing to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Put the potato mixture into a casserole dish, flatten it out with a spatula, and bake for 40 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the gratin is bubbly.
4. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh chives.
