Directions
1.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2.
Melt the butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When the
foaming subsides, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
3.
Add garlic, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook for about 30 seconds.
4.
Add potatoes, broth and cream and heat to simmer. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the potatoes are almost tender (a paring knife can be slipped into and out of a potato slice with some resistence), about 10 minutes.
5.
Transfer the mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with cheese. Bake until the cream is bubbling around the edges and the top is golden brown, about 15 minutes.
6.
Cool before serving.
