Ingredients

2 teaspoons unsalted butter
1 ½ cups beef broth or chicken, or vegetable,
2 bay leaves
¾ cup dry white wine
1 clove garlic smashed
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper fresh ground
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
2 pounds baking potatoes or Yukon Gold, peeled
1 ½ ounces parmesan cheese grated (about ⅔ cup)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 and grease a baking sheet with 1 teaspoon of the butter.
In a medium-large saucepan combine the broth, white wine, bay leaves, garlic, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce and simmer for about 10 minutes.
While the broth is simmering, thinly slice the potatoes about an ⅛ inch thick.
Add the potatoes to the broth and simmer for about 5 minutes.
Pour the potatoes and liquid into the sheet pan, removing the garlic and the bay leaves. Spread out into a thin layer. Dot the top with the remaining one teaspoon of butter and sprinkle the cheese over it.
Bake for 50 minutes. Lest rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Bay leaves - can substitute rosemary or thyme.

Broth - I prefer a beef broth, but you can use chicken or vegetable.

Potatoes - a mandoline makes slicing them much easier!
