If the gratin doesn't get as browned on top as you would like, which is basically the best part of any gratin, you can place it under the broiler for a couple of minutes until it reaches your ideal texture.

4 spray(s)

All-purpose flour

3 tbsp(s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray 9-inch square or round shallow baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Put flour in medium saucepan and gradually whisk in milk until smooth. Add garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper; bring to simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until sauce has the consistency of heavy cream and no floury taste remains, about 5 minutes. Stir in cream cheese and cook, stirring, until melted, about 2 minutes; stir in Parmesan.
  3. Put potatoes into large bowl; add cheese mixture and stir until coated evenly. Pile potatoes into prepared casserole dish, arranging top layer of potatoes.
