Ingredients
  

Crust Ingredients:

  • 1 ¼ cups flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ cup chilled butter
  • 2-3 Tbsp ice water

Filling Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds potatoes
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 3 garlic cloves, grated
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup sour cream
  • 4 Tbsp butter

Instructions
 

  • Make the crust: In a small bowl, combine the flour, salt, and chilled butter. Use a pastry cutter or 2 knives to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles small crumbs. Add the ice water 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough forms a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the pastry dough and fit it into the base of a 9” tart pan with a removable bottom.
  • Scrub the potatoes well or peel them if desired. Using a mandolin or knife, slice the potatoes into thin pieces, about ⅛” thick.
  • In a small bowl, mix the heavy cream, nutmeg, grated garlic, and salt.
  • Spread the sour cream over the bottom of the tart pan. Arrange the potato slices in an overlapping pattern, covering the entire inside of the tart pan.
  • Pour the cream mixture over the potatoes and sprinkle with salt and pepper if desired. Dot the top with small pats of butter.
  • Place the tart pan on a baking sheet to catch any spills, then bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.
  • Allow the tart to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
