Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

very easy to prepare and really tasty

Peel the raw potatoes and cut them into slices (3-5 mm thick). Separate the broccoli florets (halve or quarter if necessary). Use the stalks, too. Arrange a layer of potato slices in a fan shape in the baking dish. Season with salt and pepper. Add a layer of broccoli on top. Add diced ham (not necessary, it tastes just as good without). Add another layer of potatoes (season), another layer of broccoli, and so on. Always season the potatoes with salt (or herb salt) and pepper – very important. Finally, spread the gratin cheese over the top, dilute the cream with a dash of water, and pour over the gratin. Then bake in the oven at 180-200°C (350-400°F) with fan assisted oven ventilation for 50-60 minutes. It’s best to then turn off the oven, cover the dish with aluminum foil, and let it rest for another 20 minutes. It tastes even better reheated, so it can be prepared in advance and reheated later.
