Equipment

9x13-inch baking dish

Ingredients

3 pounds russet potatoes
3 tablespoons jalapeños seeds removed and finely diced
4 ounces leeks
1½ teaspoon Kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1½ ounces butter
2 cups heavy cream
1½ cups half & half
4 ounces cheddar cheese grated
4 ounces Monterey Jack cheese grated

Instructions

Using nonstick cooking spray or butter, grease the sides and bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. If using individual size baking dishes, grease them accordingly.
Peel potatoes and slice thinly.
3 pounds russet potatoes
Cut off fibrous end of leek. Make two cuts lengthwise across leek, keeping the root intact. Thoroughly wash the leek layers under running water to remove sand and dirt. Thinly slice the light green and white portion of the leek, discarding the root.
4 ounces leeks
Place butter in large saute pan or cast iron skillet set on medium high heat. Add jalapeños, leeks, salt, and pepper, and sauté for 4-5 minutes.
3 tablespoons jalapeños, 1½ teaspoon Kosher salt, 1½ ounces butter, 1 teaspoon black pepper
Add the cream and half & half and bring to a simmer.
2 cups heavy cream, 1½ cups half & half
When cream mixture is hot, pull from stove, add cheeses and blend in thoroughly.
4 ounces cheddar cheese, 4 ounces Monterey Jack cheese
Alternately layer the potato slices and cheese sauce into the prepared casserole dish until the dish is full, topping with the remaining cheese sauce. If using individual dishes, do the same in each of them.
Cover dish(es) with aluminum foil and bake at 350°F for 1 hour (this may be less time for the individual dishes). Remove foil and bake another 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
