Best Ham And Gruyere Potato Gratin Recipes

POTATOES AU GRATIN WITH GRUYERE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 F.
• Slice the potatoes into thin rounds - less than ¼ inch in thickness.
• Add the milk, cream, and whole garlic cloves to a large saucepan and heat on a burner at medium until simmering, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon.
• Add the sliced potatoes to the pan and let them simmer in the garlic infused milk/cream for 5 minutes, and move the potatoes around in the pan frequently with a wooden spoon to prevent them from sticking to the bottom.
• Using a large slotted spoon, remove the potatoes from the pan and add about half of them to a large, ovenproof baking dish. Spread the potatoes out in an even layer.
• Remove the rest of the potatoes from the pan and set them aside.
• Remove the garlic cloves from the pan and pour about half of the cream mixture evenly over the top of the potatoes in the oven dish.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper over the potatoes, then sprinkle half of the grated cheese evenly over the top.
• Add the remaining potatoes on top in another layer, then add the cream, salt and pepper, and cheese once again.
• Bake the potatoes for 45 to 50 minutes, or until they are bubbling and golden on the top.
• Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for several minutes, then serve, optionally sprinkled with fresh chives.

GRUYERE POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish with the softened butter.
• Toss the potato slices and chopped onions with salt and pepper, and spread 1/3 of the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle half of the Gruyere cheese over the potatoes, then add another layer of potatoes. Sprinkle on the remaining cheese followed by the remaining potatoes. Mix together the water and wine, and pour into dish. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in preheated oven until the potatoes are tender, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Once tender, remove the foil, and pour the cream evenly over the potatoes. Bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes to brown the top and thicken the cream.

HAM AND POTATOES AU GRATIN RECIPE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and cook for about 10 minutes until they are soft and translucent.
• When the onions are done, sprinkle flour over them and whisk to combine. Continue cooking the onion and flour mixture until the flour is golden brown, about two to three minutes.
• Slowly add the milk and continue whisking to prevent lumps. Cook until the sauce has thickened, which usually only takes a few minutes. Add salt and pepper, mix well and remove from the heat.
• Spray a medium-size casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter the dish. Add half of the sliced potatoes, then half of the cubed ham, and about half of both kinds of grated cheese.
• Pour on half of the sauce. Repeat the next layer with the remaining potatoes and ham, pour the remaining sauce over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheeses.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil or a cover and bake at 350 degrees F. for 40-60 minutes. How long it takes depends on the thickness of the potato slices.
• Remove the cover and test to see if your potatoes are done by piercing them with a fork. The fork should slide through easily. If not done, continue cooking for another 10 minutes or so. Once the potatoes are fork-tender, remove the cover and bake for another 20-30 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

HAM, CHEDDAR, AND POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a shallow 3-quart (3-liter) baking dish.
• In a small saucepan, combine the broth, cream, garlic and sage. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, trim any fat from the ham steak, if using, and remove and discard the center bone. Cut the ham steak or baked ham into 1/2-inch (12-millimeter) dice. Arrange one-third of the potatoes in a layer on the bottom of the prepared dish. Top with half of the diced ham and one-third of the shredded cheese. Repeat the layers of potatoes, diced ham and shredded cheese. Top with the remaining potatoes and the remaining cheese.
• Remove the broth-cream mixture from the heat. Remove and discard the garlic cloves. Season the broth-cream mixture to taste with pepper and pour over the layered vegetables, distributing it as evenly as possible. Bake, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender when pierced and the top is brown, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let stand for about 5 minutes before serving.

HAM, ARTICHOKE, AND POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Butter 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Melt 1/4 cup butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add leeks; sprinkle with coarse salt and pepper and cook until tender, stirring occasionally, about 12 minutes. Set aside.
• Cover bottom of baking dish with 1/3 of potato slices, overlapping as needed. Layer 1/3 of ham over. Scatter 1/3 of leeks over, then 1/3 of artichoke hearts. Measure 3/4 cup cheese; set aside. Sprinkle half of remaining cheese over. Repeat layering 1 time with potato slices, ham, leeks, artichokes, and cheese. Cover with remaining potato slices, ham, leeks, and artichoke hearts.
• Whisk broth and next 4 ingredients in small saucepan over medium heat until flour dissolves. Bring mixture to boil; cook until smooth and thickened, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Pour over gratin. Sprinkle 3/4 cup cheese over. Cover gratin with foil, tenting in center to prevent cheese from sticking. Bake gratin 45 minutes. Uncover and bake until potatoes are soft, topping is browned, and juices are bubbling, about 50 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before serving.
