Ingredients

Gratin

1 large potato, peeled

1 large kumara, peeled

1 large parsnip, peeled

2 large garlic cloves, finely diced

Large handful parsley stalks removed and roughly chopped

550ml milk

Sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste

Crumble

1 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated

¾ cup Shelled Pistachios

¾ cup Natural Macadamias

2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions

Preheat oven to 180°C

Use a mandoline or very sharp knife to cut the vegetables into wafer thin slices

Grease a 30cm x 20cm (or equivalent) dish. Layer the vegetables neatly adding a sprinkle of garlic, herbs, salt and pepper to every second layer

Pour milk slowly over the top. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes

Place all crumble ingredients into a food processor and blitz until a fine crumb. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pile evenly on top of the partially cooked gratin and bake uncovered for 20 minutes until lightly golden on top

Let sit for 10 minutes before serving

Leftover will last 2 days in the fridge in an airtight container and can be gently reheated in an oven.
