  • 1 1/2 pounds medium red-skinned sweet potatoes (yams)
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh Italian parsley
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh sage
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 1/4 cups (packed) coarsely grated Gruyére cheese (about 5 ounces)

  2. Butter 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish.
  3. Drain potatoes, then pat dry with kitchen towels. Transfer half of potatoes to prepared baking dish. Use hands to distribute and spread evenly. Sprinkle with half of salt-pepper mixture, then half of herb mixture. Sprinkle with half of cheese. Repeat with remaining potatoes, salt-pepper mixture, herb mixture, and cheese. Pour cream mixture over gratin, pressing lightly to submerge potato mixture as much as possible.

  5. Preheat oven to 400°F. Cover gratin tightly with foil. Bake 30 minutes. Uncover; bake until top of gratin is golden and most of liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes longer. Let stand 10 minutes; serve.

This looks and sounds wonderful. I'll make it as soon after I'm off my diet!


This really does look delicious! I've never been a fan of plain scallopped potatoes but the addition of the sweet potato, herbs and Gruyere turned something that I'd never make into something I'm making tonight! Thanks for finding this one!
