Andre Le Saint’s Zucchini Gratin | Searching4Zen

Ingredients

• 1 cup (250 ml) Creme Fraiche or heavy cream
• 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
• 1 large shallot, peeled and minced (to give 2 generous tablespoons)
• 2 teaspoons coarse salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
• 3 pounds (1 1/2 kg) zucchini, trimmed and cut in very fine, almost paper thin rounds
• 1 1/2 cups (125 g) grated Gruyere or Comte cheese
• Preheat the oven to 375 F (190 C). Lightly butter a medium size baking dish.
• Transfer the zucchini to the prepared baking dish, pressing it gently into the pan so it forms an even layer.
• Sprinkle with cheese. Bake in the center of the oven until the zucchini is tender through and the cheese is deep golden brown, about 45 minutes.
• Serve immediately.
