I found this recipe from Kraft, this is a different type of Gratin using parsnips and leeks with the potato. Creamy and delicious, this is a great recipe for those cold winter nights. Ingredients:
20 g butter |
4 leeks, white part thinly sliced |
2 garlic cloves, crushed |
800 g potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced |
400 g parsnips, peeled and thinly sliced |
125 g cream cheese, cubed and softened |
1/3 cup cream |
3/4 cup chicken stock |
2 tablespoons thyme leaves |
1 cup grated cheddar cheese |
salt and pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Heat the butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the leeks and garlic and cook 10 minutes or until softened. 2. Whisk together thecream cheese and cream until smooth. Whisk in the stock, thyme and seasonings. 3. Layer half the potato and parsnip into a greased 21/2 litre capacity baking dish. Top with leek mixture. Pour over half the cream cheese mixture then top with remaining potato and parsnip. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese and pour over remaining cream cheese mixture. 4. Bake, covered, at 180°C for 50 minutes, then uncovered for a further 20 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. |
