CREAMY POTATO AND LEEK GRATIN
Cutting leeks into large pieces (they almost dissolve when thinly sliced) gives them a presence equal to disks of potato, while cooking the vegetables separately-the leeks are braised in butter, the spuds are simmered in milk and cream-preserves their distinct flavors. The glorious results will supply the homiest meatloaf supper with pizzazz.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle. Generously butter a 3-qt shallow baking dish. Cut a round of parchment paper to fit just inside a 12-inch heavy skillet, then set parchment aside.
- Halve leeks lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch pieces (you should have about 8 cups). Wash leeks.
- Cook leeks in butter with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper, covered with parchment round, in skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, peel potatoes and slice crosswise 1/16 inch thick with slicer. Transfer to a large heavy pot with cream, milk, thyme, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally (liquid will thicken). Stir in leeks, then transfer to baking dish.
- Bake, uncovered, until potatoes are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
- Do Ahead
- Gratin can be baked 2 days ahead and chilled. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes, then reheat, covered, in a 350°F oven until hot, about 30 minutes.
POTATO LEEK GRATIN
Layer thinly sliced potatoes in a gratin dish, and then take your time sautéing the leeks, letting them turn a little golden and crisp around the edges, which brings out their sweetness. Add the leeks to the potatoes, and using the same pan in which you cooked the leeks, scrape up the brown bits at the bottom of the pan with a mix of cream, garlic, thyme and nutmeg, pouring that over the potatoes and leeks.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees and butter a 2-quart gratin dish. Wash the leeks to remove any grit and slice thinly crosswise.
- Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice the potatoes into rounds, 1/8-inch thick. Toss with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Layer the rounds in the gratin dish.
- Melt the 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add leeks, remaining salt and pepper, and thyme. Cook, stirring, until leeks are tender and golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Discard thyme and scatter the leeks over the potatoes.
- Add cream, garlic and bay leaf to the skillet, scraping up browned bits of leeks from the bottom of the pan. Simmer gently for 5 minutes. Stir in nutmeg.
- Pour the cream over the leeks and potatoes and top with the Gruyère. Cover with aluminum foil and transfer to the oven. Bake for 40 minutes, uncover and bake until the cheese is bubbling and golden, 15 to 20 minutes longer. Let cool slightly before serving.

HAM, CHEDDAR, AND POTATO GRATIN
Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a shallow 3-quart (3-liter) baking dish.
- In a small saucepan, combine the broth, cream, garlic and sage. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, trim any fat from the ham steak, if using, and remove and discard the center bone. Cut the ham steak or baked ham into 1/2-inch (12-millimeter) dice. Arrange one-third of the potatoes in a layer on the bottom of the prepared dish. Top with half of the diced ham and one-third of the shredded cheese. Repeat the layers of potatoes, diced ham and shredded cheese. Top with the remaining potatoes and the remaining cheese.
- Remove the broth-cream mixture from the heat. Remove and discard the garlic cloves. Season the broth-cream mixture to taste with pepper and pour over the layered vegetables, distributing it as evenly as possible. Bake, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender when pierced and the top is brown, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let stand for about 5 minutes before serving.
HAM, POTATO, AND CHEESE GRATIN
Steps:
- In a saucepan over high heat, bring water to a boil. Add ¼-inch ham steaks or slices and simmer for 30 seconds. Remove from the heat, drain well, and set aside.
- Slice the potatoes thin, ⅛ inch thick; use a mandoline to produce even slices quickly.
- Simmer or parboil the potatoes until they are cooked half through; do this before layering them in the baking pan. (Simmering the potatoes will shorten the baking time.) Add seasonings to flavor both the potatoes and the liquid.
- Peel and smash garlic clove; rub the clove over the inside of the gratin dish (a 9-by-12-inch baking dish) then coat the inside of the dish with butter.
- Layer one-third of the potato slices evenly over the bottom of the buttered dish overlapping them slightly then season with salt, fresh ground pepper, and herbs. If you are substituting some of the potatoes with other thin sliced root vegetables such as parsnips or turnips-begin that now (but first parboil those vegetables as you did the potatoes).
- Add herbs and aromatic vegetables such as minced red onions or thin rounds of shallots or leeks atop the potatoes to evenly distribute the flavor.
- Next, layer half of the thinly sliced ham evenly over the potatoes. Again sprinkle herbs, salt and pepper, and add aromatic vegetables.
- Layer the potatoes again then add a second layer of ham before adding a final layer of evenly overlapping potatoes-even layers ensure even cooking.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Pour the milk into a small saucepan and warm it over medium heat until small bubbles appear at the edge of the pan. Remove from the heat.
- In a medium saucepan melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes stirring constantly; be careful not to brown the mix. Next, slowly stir in the hot milk and cook, stirring until the mixture thickens in about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Stir in the shredded cheese and mustard; season to taste with salt and black pepper. Return the saucepan to low heat and stir until the cheese just melts, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the layered potatoes and ham. Shake the pan gently to distribute the sauce evenly into the layers below. Bake uncovered until the potatoes are soft and easily pierced with a fork, the cheese is bubbling around the edges, and the top is golden brown, about 1 hour.
- Remove the gratin from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes allowing it to firm up. Serve directly from the gratin dish onto warmed plates. Serve with a green or bean salad and crusty bread or rolls.

Steps:
- Pour the stock, cream and milk into a small saucepan, add the garlic and bay leaf and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat, cover and let the flavours infuse while you get on with the rest of the dish.
- Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4/fan 160C. Butter a 2 litre gratin dish well. Mix the potatoes, leeks and ham (if using) together in the dish, and spread out in an even layer. Pour over the stock mixture and tuck the bay leaf in the middle. Season and sprinkle with the cheese.
- Stand the dish on a baking tray to catch any spills. Loosely cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Test the potatoes with a knife - they should be just beginning to soften. Remove the foil and bake for another 35-45 minutes, spooning some of the stock mixture over every now and again until the potatoes are tender. Cool for 15 minutes before serving.
