Ingredients

  • 3 leeks, (white part only), trimmed, halved lengthwise, and thinly sliced (1-1/4 cups)

  • 1 ½ cup fat-free milk

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 1 garlic, minced

  • 2 ¼ pound Yukon Gold potatoes, (4 to 5 medium), peeled and cut in 1/8-inch slices

  • 4 ounce goat cheese (1 cup)

  • ¼ cup panko or soft bread crumbs

  • ¼ cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese

  • Fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In nonstick skillet cook leeks in 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-low heat, 20 minutes, or until tender and beginning to brown, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

  2. In bowl whisk 2 tablespoons of the milk into the flour. Whisk in remaining milk, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and garlic.

  4. Bake 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake 25 minutes more or until potatoes are tender. In small bowl stir together the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle on potatoes. Bake, uncovered, 15 minutes more or until topping is browned. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Top with parsley. Serves 8.
