Servings: 4 people
- 11 baby potatoes
- 300 g grated cheese
- 700 ml milk
- 4 tbsp flour heaped
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. In a small bowl, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, and cumin.
Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Slowly whisk in the flour mixture to form a roux, then gradually add the milk, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens.
Arrange half of the potato slices in a greased baking dish, overlapping slightly to create layers. Pour half of the sauce evenly over the potatoes and sprinkle with half of the grated cheese.
Repeat with another layer of potatoes, sauce, and cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
