ORIGINAL POTATOES AU GRATIN

Steps:

• Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Llightly butter a 13x9 inch pan so the potatoes won't stick.
• Cut your potatoes into very thin slices (width wise).
• Organize half of the potatoes in the pan.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper on potatoes to taste (I use about 3/4 teaspoon of pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt).
• Add a layer of cheese (1 cup ).
• Peel 3 cloves of garlic (but leave them whole).
• In a small sauté pan add 1 pint of heavy whipping cream, the 3 whole garlic cloves, and 1 teaspoon of chicken flavor bouillon (the bouillon is optional but I always add it.).
• Evenly add the second layer of potatoes.
• Add salt and pepper (same amount).
• Add the rest of the cheese (1 cup).
• Once the heavy whipping cream mixture comes to a boil REMOVE the 3 garlic cloves; pour mixture evenly over the potatoes.
• Bake for approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes.
• Enjoy !
