Garlic butter potato bake

Garlic Butter Potato Bake is a delicious and comforting dish that's perfect for any occasion. Combining the smooth textures of potatoes, the rich flavor of butter, and the aromatic essence of garlic and thyme, this recipe will surely be a hit at your dining table. The addition of vegetable broth and parmesan cheese takes it to another level of deliciousness.

Ingredients:

6 potatoes
1200g
2 onions
320g
2 garlic cloves
6g
1 tbsp fresh thyme
16g
1.50 cups vegetable broth
340g
1/4 cup butter
54g
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
40g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Potatoes: Wash, peel, and thinly slice the potatoes into uniform slices.
- Onions: Peel and thinly slice the onions.
- Garlic: Mince the garlic cloves finely.
- Thyme: Strip the thyme leaves from the stems and roughly chop them, if necessary.
3. Prepare the Baking Dish:
Grease a large baking dish with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
4. Prepare Garlic Butter:
In a small saucepan, melt the 1/4 cup butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned. Remove from heat and stir in the fresh thyme.
5. Layer the Ingredients:
- Arrange a third of the potato slices in an even layer at the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Scatter a third of the onion slices over the potatoes.
- Drizzle about a third of the garlic butter mixture over the layered potatoes and onions.
- Repeat these layers two more times, finishing with a generous drizzle of the garlic butter on top.
6. Add the Vegetable Broth:
Carefully pour the vegetable broth over the layered potatoes and onions. This will help cook and flavor the potatoes as they bake.
7. Bake:
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
8. Add Parmesan Cheese:
After 45 minutes, remove the foil and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
9. Final Bake:
Return the dish to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown and crispy.
10. Serve:
Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the dish to set slightly, making it easier to serve.

Tips:

- Ensure the potatoes are sliced evenly to ensure uniform cooking.

- For an extra crispy top, you can broil the dish for a few minutes at the end, but keep a close eye to prevent burning.

- Feel free to add a mix of cheeses like mozzarella or cheddar for a different flavor profile.

- If you prefer a more fragrant dish, you can also add a few sprigs of rosemary or a pinch of nutmeg.

- Let the bake cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to settle and make it easier to serve.

This Garlic Butter Potato Bake is not only satisfying but also relatively easy to prepare. By following these steps, you'll have a delectable side dish that pairs well with a variety of main courses.
