Servings: persons

2 pieces Tomatillo, Husked And Washed
3 pieces Poblano Chilies
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1/2 cups Chicken Stock
3 ounces, weight Sour Cream/cream Cheese
1 bunch Cilantro- Whole
1 clove Garlic
Juice Of One Lime
Salt And Pepper, to taste
6 pounds Potatoes
1/2 cups Queso Blanco Rallado

1
Coat tomatillos and chilies with olive oil and roast for 10-15 minutes in oven.
2
When roasted, stick chilies in a plastic bag to steam so it's easier to peel them.
3
Once the chilies are steamed, peel skins and remove seeds/stem.
4
In a food processor or blender, puree everything except potatoes and queso blanco rallado.
5
Thinly slice potatoes.
6
Start with coating the inside of the dish with a thin layer of puree. Layer potatoes and sauce, covering dish tightly with aluminum foil when finished. You'll want to keep the sauce fairly thin during this process.
7
Bake covered at 375F for 45 minutes, then uncover and sprinkle cheese over the top. Bake until cheese is melted and golden.
8
NOTE- I chose queso blanco rallado because several au gratin recipes in Spanish called for it. I don't speak Spanish and so don't know what it's called in English. It looks kind of like Parmesan cheese, except it melts better. The dish in the restaurant had a more stringy cheese (mozzarella consistency) on top. If anyone knows what kind of cheese that is, I'd love to know. This cheese does pair well with the dish, though.
