Cooking Steps
Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1/8-inch-thick slices.
Add the sliced potatoes, heavy cream, milk, 2 tablespoons butter, minced garlic, fresh thyme leaves, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper and grated nutmeg to a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and almost cooked through but still hold their shape, about 5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Add grated Gruyere and grated Parmesan, stirring gently to combine.
Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with unsalted butter.
Pour the potato mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake until the top is light golden brown and the potatoes are cooked through and tender, about 45 minutes.
Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
