Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Preheat the oven

    Turn the oven on to 180°C (thermostat 6).

  2. Peel the vegetables

    Peel the zucchini and potatoes. Cut them into 3 mm thick rounds.

  3. Sauté the potatoes

    Heat the olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and sauté for 5 min without browning.

    Tip · To keep the potatoes from sticking, stir them regularly while they cook.

  4. Add the zucchini

    Add the zucchini rounds to the skillet with the potatoes. Stir well.

  5. Cook, covered

    Cover the skillet and cook for 10 min over low heat to soften the vegetables.

  6. Transfer to the dish

    Transfer the vegetables to the baking dish. Spread them out evenly.

  7. Make the cream

    In a bowl, mix the crème fraîche with the nutmeg, salt and pepper.

  8. Top the gratin

    Spoon the cream over the vegetables, spreading it well. Sprinkle with half the grated Comté.

  9. Bake the gratin

    Put the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 min.

    Tip · If the top isn't browning enough, slide the dish under the broiler for 2 min, keeping an eye on it.

  10. Brown the top

    Take the gratin out, sprinkle with the rest of the Comté and put it back in the oven for 5 min to brown.
