Ingredients:
300ml cream
1 small onion, finely sliced
6 sprigs thyme
1 tsp salt
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1.25kg or half a box of Oakley’s Classic Goldens
½ cup parmesan, grated
Instructions:
Pre heat the oven to 170°C degrees fan
In a small saucepan, place the cream, sliced onion, thyme sprigs, salt, garlic and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 3 minutes on a low heat, then turn off the heat and leave to infuse while you cut the potatoes.
Thinly slice the potatoes horizontally as thin as you can, while keeping them in their potato shape.
Butter a baking dish about 26cm round or similar, and arrange the potatoes in the baking dish in a spiral pattern. Pour the hot infused cream through a sieve over the potatoes. Cover with baking paper and tin foil, then bake for 30 minutes.
Remove from the oven and top with grated parmesan, bake uncovered for a further 15 minutes or until golden and the potatoes are tender.
