Method

Take a small baking dish, copper pan or ceramic casserole, just large enough to contain the sliced potatoes.
Brush the dish with melted butter.
Layer the sliced potatoes, slightly overlapping, in a circular motion.
After 2 layers, season with sea salt and pepper.
Continue until the potato reaches just below the top of the dish.
Season the potatoes once finished layering, add a good drizzle of melted butter and pour over the cream.
The cream should just cover the potatoes.
Add a touch more pepper.
Bake at 140 C for about 1 hour.
Set aside.

Notes & Tips

If time is a little short, this can be made the day before and reheated in a slow oven, before colouring and serving with slow roasted lamb back straps.

There is a grammatical error in the first line. "Potato's are such a versatile vegetable and there are so many different kinds. Neil prefers bintje potatoes for his spectacular version of potato gratin." Potatoes does not have an apostrophe.

His book - The Food I Love - has this recipe at p335 and specified 180 as the temp. I cooked it and it was great.
