- Preparation and cooking time
- Total time
- Easy
- serves 8
Ingredients
- 300ml double cream
- 200ml whole milk
- 2 cloves garlic, halved
- 1 whole nutmeg
- 1.5kg Maris Piper potatoes, peeled
- butter
- 2-3 tbsp parmesan, grated
Method
- STEP 1
Heat the cream, milk and garlic in a pan, adding a good grating of nutmeg. Leave to infuse while you prep the spuds.
- STEP 2
Cut the little ends off each potato so it’s a similar size all the way along. Cut into thin slices, keeping the slices together, then lay in a very large wide, shallow buttered dish approx 24cm by 36cm in rows, pushing down a bit like fanned out cards or dominoes. Keep going until the surface is covered.
- STEP 3
Reheat and season the cream, then discard the garlic. Pour over the potatoes and press down with the back of a fish slice. Scatter with the parmesan. Bake alongside the turkey (at 180C/fan 160C/gas 4) for about 1 hour 15 minutes or until tender and golden.
