Mini Gratin Potatoes
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, take some cooking spray and generously coat the 12 muffin cups to prevent sticking.
3
In a saucepan, melt some butter over medium heat. Once melted, add minced garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the aroma is released and fragrant, approximately 1 minute.
4
Add a tablespoon of flour to the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is well combined and smooth, taking around 2 minutes.
5
Slowly pour in some milk while continuously whisking the mixture until it's smooth, thickened, and free of lumps, roughly 5 minutes.
6
Take the saucepan off the heat source and stir in grated Parmesan cheese until it's fully incorporated and melted.
7
Season the cheese sauce with salt and pepper to taste, then set it aside for later use.
8
Next, layer diced potatoes evenly into the prepared muffin cups.
9
Spoon the cheese sauce over the potatoes, making sure to cover them evenly.
10
Place the muffin cups in the preheated oven and bake until the potatoes are tender and a knife can be easily inserted into the center, approximately 25 minutes.
