Ingredients
2 c
Fresh almond milk* 1 Tbsp
olive oil 1 Tbsp
Unbleached white flour 2 clv
Garlic, minced 9⁄16 tspn
Salt 1⁄8 tspn
Black pepper 1⁄16 tspn
Nutmeg 3 c
Potato, sliced 1/8 inch thick 2 1⁄2 tspn
Fresh rosemary leaves, finely chopped 1⁄2 tspn
Paprika for garnishingInstructions
- Prepare the almond milk as directed below and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Heat the oil in a skillet and sauté the flour and garlic on low heat until lightly toasted, stirring constantly. Slowly whisk in the almond milk. Season with the salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Simmer the gravy for a few minutes to thicken slightly, then remove from the heat.
- Lightly oil an 8x8-inch baking dish. Spoon a few tablespoons of gravy on the bottom. Arrange a layer of potato slices on top. Spoon a few tablespoons of gravy over the potatoes. Sprinkle with some chopped rosemary. Repeat layering potatoes, gravy, and rosemary until all the potatoes are used up.
- Pour the remaining gravy over the top and spread to evenly cover the potatoes. Add a little water if it looks too dry. Cover with a lid or foil and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the potatoes are soft. Sprinkle with paprika and bake for 5 more minutes uncovered, then remove from the oven. Cool slightly before serving.
Notes
*Almond milk: Blend 1 cup raw almonds with 2 1/2 cups hot water until smooth. Strain through a fine strainer. If you use blanched raw almonds, the milk will be slightly whiter in color.
