1 1/2 pounds potatoes (8-10 medium potatoes)
Vegetable Oil
1 1/2 - 2 cups 35% whipping cream (or lighten it up with 10% cream and bit of added flour)
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. garlic powder or fresh minced garlic
1/4 tsp. white or black pepper
Pinch of grated nutmeg
Wash and peel potatoes. Slice into rounds about 1/4 inch thick. Place in a lightly oiled 9x13 inch shallow baking dish (Note: if using lighter cream, sprinkle a couple of Tablespoons of flour and a few pats of butter in between the potato layers to thicken sauce).
In a large bowl, combine cream, Parmesan, garlic, pepper and nutmeg. Pour over potatoes and blend to coat slices with mixture.
Bake uncovered in a 400 ° oven until tender, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. For less crisp potatoes, cover baking dish with foil after 30 minutes of baking.
