Potatoes gratin with garlic and peppers

I am trying not to eat so much red meat even though i come from a country that i think that we eat too much red meat there, almost everyday, so today i made my own recipe for potatoes gratin, which is potatoes in the oven with creme fraiche, Greek goat cheese, garlic, peppers and some herbs. You can serve this with salad or boiled vegetables and if you are a meat lover then you can serve this also with meat!

You will need:
(for 4 portions)

10 small potatoes
3 dl creme fraiche
2,5 dl water
150 gr goat cheese
1 small yellow pepper
1 small red pepper
1 clove garlic
Salt, pepper, oregano
Olive oil


Remove the skin from the potatoes, wash them and cut them in round thin pieces like you see in the picture,  put them in an oven pan and add some salt and pepper.


Cut the peppers and the garlic in small pieces, put some olive oil in a sauce pan and when its hot throw them in.


When they take some color add the creme fraiche, the water and the goat cheese and stir well until the cheese has melted. Add some salt, pepper and oregano, turn the heat down in half and let it boil for 5 minutes without a lid.


Add the sauce in the potatoes and make sure that they are covered with it. (if necessary add some more water in the sauce)


Put them in a preheated oven at 200 degrees in the middle of the oven and let them cook for at least 1, 5 hour but you can check them from time to time.



 bon appetit
