Creamy, comforting, and often cheesy, gratins have everything you could want in one easy dish. While most commonly made with white potatoes, an amazing gratin can be made with many types of vegetables. The following recipes utilize everything from cauliflower to squash to make a delicious side dish for any occasion.
A mandoline will slice the potatoes quickly and to the same thickness, though a sharp knife will also work. Instead of being buried in cream, the potatoes and leeks are simmered in and drizzled with milk so the potatoes get wonderfully crisp and tender and the cheeses form a melty, golden crust. The result is a rich, rustic potato side with contrasting flavors and texture. Reheat leftovers in the oven until crisped and warmed through, and then serve with eggs and a side of fruit for breakfast.
