3/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
1 cup heavy cream
6 oz gruyere cheese, grated
3 oz parmigiano-teggiano cheese, grated
3 lbs russet potatoes, peeled , cut into 1/4-inch slices
3 tbsp minced fresh chives

Directions:

In 12 nonstick fry pan over medium heat, melt 4 Tbs. butter. Add leeks and salt, stirring to coat leeks with butter. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until leeks are tender, about 20 minutes.
