US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl add both the 3 5.2 oz pkgs boursin cheese (all of it) and 2 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream. Using a hand mixer whip them together, just until smooth & creamy. Set aside.
  • Lightly spray a 9x13" baking dish with non stick spray. Spread 1/3 of the 2 lbs russet potatoes evenly out in the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle a pinch of salt evenly out overtop.
  • Pour 1/3 of the cream mixture evenly out overtop of the potatoes, pressing down with a spatula to get it into the cracks.
  • In a small bowl mix the 1/2 cup shredded gruyere cheese and 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese until evenly combined. Spread 1/3 of the cheeses evenly out over the potatoes. Repeat the layers two more times, ending with the last of the cheese.
  • Bake the potatoes at 350° for 1 hour and 20-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft, the cream has thickened, and there's a golden brown crust on top.
  • Carefully remove the hot dish from the oven, and let it rest for 5 full minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For the best slicing, I recommend using a mandolin slicer. You want the slices of potato to be very thin.
  • If the top of the potatoes looks to be getting too brown, cover the dish with foil for the remainder of the bake time.
  • Want to amp up the flavor? Diced ham or caramelized onions and roasted garlic make delicious additions to this recipe.
  • You can peel the potatoes or leave the skins on. It's totally up to your personal preference.
  • These scalloped potatoes can be assembled the night before, covered, and refrigerated until ready to cook.
