Cabbage and Leek Gratin with mustard cream

Added by: on Nov 1st, 2010
This homey gratin is a standard in my kitchen because it’s reliably delicious and easy to make. It’s also versatile. While it makes no pretensions to grandeur with its rustic good looks, this gratin won’t disappoint. Home-cooked cannellini beans and braised carrots are two great side dishes .. more >

Directions:

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F and butter or oil a 6-cup gratin dish. Put a large pot of water on to boil for the cabbage. While it’s heating, chop the cabbage and the leeks. When the water boils, add salt to taste and the vegetables. After 5 minutes, pour the vegetables into a colander. Press down firmly with a rubber scraper to force out as much water as possible.

2

Whisk the flour, milk, sour cream, eggs, and herbs together, then add the cabbage and leeks. Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt. Pour into the prepared dish and bake until firm and lightly browned, about 45 minutes. Serve with Mustard Cream.

Cooks' note:
Boil and then drain the cabbage. Whisk the ingredients together for the batter, then combine the two and bake. Just make sure the cabbage is very dry so it doesn't dilute the custard.

I love gratin and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to explore my culinary boundary. The gratin tasted fabulous and it's now one of my go-to recipes when I invite guests over to my home.

This is my own version of the classic French potato dish Gratin de Pommes de Terre a la Dauphinoise. I par-boiled the potato slices (instead of baking it raw, which also cuts the baking time in half), made a bechamel sauce (instead of just milk), and integrated garlic and sliced green onions into the bechamel (instead of just rubbing the gratin dish with garlic). The marriage of the garlic ..
