This has been a long, hard week and our dinners have suffered (it was our first full week of school)! We had frozen pizza and fast food all week except for these beauties with some BBQ chicken! This recipe is from Melissa d'Arabian, winner of The Next Food Network Star. I am a sucker for food based reality TV like The Next Food Network Star and Top Chef! Don't let the picture fool you, this is an awesome recipe!! I forgot to invert the gratins onto the plate so mine don't look very appealing but they were fantastic! Not to mention, you only need two potatoes to make 6 individual gratins! Don't count on each person only eating one though, we each had 2 and the boys came back and devoured the leftovers later that evening!Ingredients
Vegetable spray
2 large russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 cup grated Swiss cheese (or a different cheese if you prefer)
2 green onions, finely chopped (I omitted these)
Salt and pepper
3/4 cup heavy cream (I didn't have any cream so I used butter)
Directions
Spray 6 muffin tins with vegetable spray. Layer potato slices and cheese into each muffin cup. Season with salt and pepper and top each gratin with 1 or 2 tablespoons of heavy cream (or in my case 1/2 tablespoon butter). Cover with foil and bake for 30 to 40 minutes at 375 degrees, removing the foil halfway through cooking time. Invert gratins onto plate and serve.
