Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Sweet Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them thinly (about ⅛-inch thick). Use a mandoline for even slices if possible.
- Toss the sweet potato slices with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2: Make the Cream Mixture
- In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and milk.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3: Assemble the Gratin
- Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- Arrange a layer of sweet potato slices at the bottom of the dish, overlapping slightly.
- Pour a bit of the cream mixture over the sweet potatoes and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
- Repeat the layers until all the sweet potato slices and cream mixture are used up. The top layer should be coated with Parmesan cheese.
Step 4: Bake the Gratin
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
- Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
Step 5: Prepare the Rosemary Crumble
- While the gratin is baking, prepare the crumble. In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, melted butter, chopped rosemary, and toasted pine nuts.
- Season with salt and pepper, and stir until the mixture is well combined.
Step 6: Add Burrata and Crumble Topping
- Remove the gratin from the oven and tear the burrata cheese over the top, distributing it evenly.
- Sprinkle the rosemary crumble mixture over the burrata.
- Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the topping is crispy and golden brown.
Step 7: Serve
- Allow the gratin to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs, extra toasted pine nuts, and a drizzle of olive oil.
