Prepare Potatoes:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly.
- Lay the potato slices out on a clean kitchen towel to dry them thoroughly.
-
Layering:
- Take a buttered casserole dish and arrange a thin layer of the dried potato slices at the bottom.
- Season this layer with salt and pepper to add flavor.
- Sprinkle a portion of the Swiss cheese evenly over the potato layer.
- Continue layering the potatoes and cheese, ensuring each layer is seasoned, until you’ve used all the ingredients. Finish with a final layer of cheese on top.
-
Adding Liquid and Butter:
- Once the layers are complete, pour the vegetable bouillon evenly over the potatoes and cheese in the casserole dish.
- Dot the top layer with small pieces of butter to enhance the richness of the dish.
-
Baking:
- Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 1/2 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the liquid has evaporated, leaving behind a golden and bubbling cheesy crust.
-
Serving:
- Once done, remove the Savoy Potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve these delectable potatoes hot as a hearty side dish alongside your favorite main course.
