Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup butter 🧈
• 1/4 cup margarine 🧈
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 🌾
• 1 cup half-and-half cream 🥛
• 1 sprig rosemary, chopped 🌿
• 1 teaspoon rosemary, minced 🌿
• 1 clove garlic, minced 🧄
• 1 teaspoon salt 🧂
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper 🌶️
• 3 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced 🥔
• 2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese 🧀

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.

2. Prepare Sauce: In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and margarine together.

3. Add Flour: Stir in the all-purpose flour until smooth, creating a roux.

4. Add Cream: Gradually pour in the half-and-half cream, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

5. Thicken Sauce: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.

6. Seasoning: Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the minced rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the sauce.

7. Layer Potatoes: Layer the thinly sliced potatoes in the greased baking dish, arranging them evenly.

8. Pour Sauce: Pour the creamy sauce over the potatoes, ensuring they are well coated.

9. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese generously over the top of the potatoes and sauce.

10. Bake: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the potatoes to cook through.

11. Final Touch: Uncover the dish and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is golden brown and bubbling.

12. Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh rosemary if desired. Enjoy the creamy, savory goodness of Rosemary Au Gratin Potatoes!
