Gratin of Sweet and White Potatoes
serves 8

1 1/2 lbs. white russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 lb. sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 1/2 c. shredded Monterey jack cheese
4 oz. crumbled Feta cheese
2 t. freshly minced thyme
1 T. freshly chopped parsley
1 t. garlic salt
1 t. white pepper
1/2 c. parmesan cheese
2 T. flour mixed with 2 t. paprika
1 c. heavy cream
1 c. chicken broth
1/4 c. melted butter
2 c. seasoned bread crumbs
2 T. minced garlic
4 T. butter

Oven at 350. Butter a 9x13 inch baking pan. Saute the garlic in the 4 T. butter and set aside.

Use 1/2 sweet and white potato slices alternately arranging them overlapping each other to make a pretty design. In a bowl, combine the cheeses, thyme, parsley, salt and pepper and sprinkle half of this mixture over the potatoes. Sprinkle the flour mix evenly over. Arrange the rest of the potato slices over again, sprinkle with the remaining cheese mixture. Mix the cream and broth in the skillet where you sauteed the garlic and pour gently over the potatoes. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 1 hour. Mix crumbs with melted butter and sprinkle over and bake for an additional 25 minutes. Let stand 20 minutes before cutting.
