Notes
➡️ Slice potatoes very thin so they cook fast and even.
➡️ Use full-fat cream for the best and richest flavor possible.
➡️ Grease the pan well so nothing sticks to the edges.
➡️ Let the dish rest for ten minutes before you serve.
➡️ Add a pinch of cayenne for a tiny spicy kick.
➡️ Fresh herbs always taste better than dried herbs in sauce.
➡️ Do not skip the nutmeg because it adds great depth.
