Tips
Gratin dauphinois (by Régis Aribert, from La Buffe hotel-restaurant in Autrans):
Ingredients:
3 kg of potatoes
1 L milk
1 L of fresh Vercors cream
Salt
Preparation: Peel the potatoes, cut them into thin 1-2 mm strips. Boil the milk and cream together. When boiling, put the sliced potatoes in a pan and salt. Cook over low heat with a lid for 45 minutes. Spread the potatoes in a baking dish and add fresh cream. Bake at 180°C for 30 minutes. Cooking the potatoes in milk and cream, the particularity of Régis Aribert's recipe, makes the gratin deliciously smooth.
Also, his recipe does not include cheese. The golden finish is due to the reduction of the fresh cream. La Buffe: Tel. +33 (04) 76 94 70 70.
