- Peel the potatoes and cut into thin slices using a food processor or mandoline.
- Put the cream and milk into a large pan along with the garlic and a good grating of nutmeg, and bring to the boil over a medium-low heat.
- Season and add the potatoes, then turn down the heat and simmer gently for about 10 minutes until they are softened, but not cooked through.
- Meanwhile, grease a gratin dish with butter, and heat the oven to 160C/gas mark 3.
- Pour the potatoes into the dish and spread them out. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil, sprinkle the cheese on top, and bake for a further 10-15 minutes until browned and bubbling.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
