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 and slice

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin rounds. Wash the zucchini and cut them into 5 mm thick rounds without peeling.

  3. Sauté the vegetables

    In the nonstick skillet, sauté the zucchini and potatoes over medium heat with a splash of water (or a pat of butter if you have some) for 5 min. Salt lightly.

    Tip · To keep the gratin from getting watery, sauté the vegetables well in the skillet before layering them.

  4. Make the cream sauce

    In the saucepan, mix the crème fraîche, milk, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Warm it over low heat without boiling.

  5. Assemble the gratin

    In a baking dish (or any ovenproof dish), layer the potatoes, then the zucchini, then sprinkle with half the crumbled goat cheese. Repeat. Spoon the cream mixture over the top.

    Tip · If you don't have a grater, cut the cheese into small cubes for a meltier texture in the gratin.

  6. Add the rest of the goat cheese

    Crumble the rest of the goat cheese over the gratin and bake for 20 min at 180°C.
