Ingredients

3 pounds red potatoes, peeled and sliced
6 ounces Gouda cheese, shredded, divided
3 tablespoons butter
5 cloves garlic, minced
1.5 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon salt
0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
In the prepared baking dish, create layers starting with 1/2 of the sliced potatoes, followed by 1/2 of the shredded cheese. Then, add the remaining potatoes to complete the layering.
Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until it becomes fragrant and turns a beautiful golden brown color. Pour the garlic butter evenly over the layered potatoes.
In a separate bowl, combine the cream, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture evenly over the potatoes, ensuring they are well coated. Finally, sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 75 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
