Instructions: Peel and roast the garlic. Cool. Puree the garlic and add to cream. Place in a sauce pan and reduce to 2/3 volume over low to medium heat. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

Peel and thin slice the potatoes. Layer the potatoes evenly in a greased baking pan. Sprinkle salt, pepper and garlic cream between each layer. Wrap with foil. Bake at 350 for 1.5 hours. About every 15-20 minutes press the top of the potatoes with a flat spatula. This is done to compact the potatoes. When the potatoes are done, remove the foil. Continue to bake for another 15-20 minutes. Remove them from the oven when the top has browned.

Keep in a warm place but allow to slightly cool before cutting.

Service: Re-heat the remaining sauce. Cut the potatoes into 4-6 servings.

Pour 1-2 oz of the sauce over each serving. Garnish with chopped fresh chives or parsley.
