Ingredients:
-3-4 large gold potatoes
-1/2 cup ricotta
-1/2 cup half and half
-1 tbsp butter
-1 tsp basil
-1 tsp oregano
-1 tsp sea salt
-1 cup shredded mozzarella
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Slice your potatoes into even sized slivers – about 1/8 inch thick.
3. Soak your potatoes in a bowl of water while you do the next steps to prevent them from spoiling.
4. Add the ricotta, milk, and butter to a sauce pot on medium heat and stir until melted and mixed together. Add in the spices and stir. Remove from heat.
5. Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean dish towel.
6. Line a 9x9 pan or other oven safe casserole dish with half of the potatoes. Pour half of the ricotta/milk mixture over the potatoes. Layer with the remaining potatoes and pour the remaining milk mixture over them.
7. Top with the mozzarella cheese and bake for 25 minutes.
