• Place a 9-by-12-inch flameproof gratin dish on the stove over low heat. Brush the bottom and the sides with the melted butter. Spread the garlic around the bottom of the dish. Cook just long enough to toast the garlic in the butter, 3 to 4 minutes. Add a layer of the potato mixture. Combine the Gruyere and Parmesan in a bowl, then sprinkle a third of the cheese over the potatoes. Repeat the layering 2 more times, finishing with the remaining cheese. Pick the thyme leaves and sprinkle over the top, mixing with last layer of cheese.

AU GRATIN POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish with non-stick spray.
• Wash the potatoes, or peel if you like. We leave the skins on. Slice them thinly, about 1/4 inch thick. Boil for about 5 minutes to soften them, but don't overcook them! They should be soft, but not done.
• While potatoes are cooking, put butter and onion in a large microwave-safe dish and cook for 2-3 minutes, until onions are soft and slightly translucent. (I use my large Pyrex measuring cup.) Add remaining ingredients, mix well, and microwave 3-4 more minutes until bubbling.
• Layer potatoes and sauce mixture into greased dish, evenly coating potatoes. Top layer should be sauce. Bake for about 45 minutes until the top is browned and bubbly.
• (If you're pressed for time, microwave the casserole for about 10 minutes, then stick it under the broiler to brown the top - my family can't tell the difference!).
