Homemade side dish

Whisk the egg yolk with the milk, crème fraîche, and cream. Season with pepper, salt, and nutmeg. Rub a baking dish (approx. 20 cm in diameter) with butter and crushed garlic. Cut the potatoes into slices about 2 mm thick and arrange them in a circle, slightly overlapping (only one layer if possible!!!). Then cover the potatoes completely with the liquid.

Preheat the oven to 175°C (fan oven) and bake the gratin for 35-45 minutes, until golden brown and the potatoes have absorbed the liquid and are cooked through.
