The simplest solution for a festive Easter table is to make a delicious casserole of potato slices baked with cheese under a creamy sauce with a subtle sage flavor. The potatoes are sliced and placed in a baking dish in several layers, alternating with grated Manchego cheese and cayenne pepper, which, after baking in the creamy potatoes, will be less pungent and pleasantly warming. The final layer should be cheese. It will cover the casserole with a stunning golden crust. Serve it as a side dish with meat dishes and enjoy the rich, cheesy, creamy flavor.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease a 2-quart (1-liter) baking dish with 1 tbsp (15 g) butter.
- In a large saucepan, bring the cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and sage to a simmer over low heat; cook for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and slice them into 1/4-inch-thick rounds (use a mandoline if you have one).
- Place about a quarter of the potatoes in the bottom of the prepared pan, overlapping the slices. Season with salt, cayenne pepper, and 1/3 of the cheese. Repeat the layers twice more (potatoes, salt, cayenne pepper, cheese), finishing with a layer of potatoes.
- Strain the cream, discarding the sage. Pour it into the pan and press the potatoes into place. Cut the remaining 2 tablespoons (30 g) butter into pieces and arrange them on top of the potatoes.
- Cover with aluminum foil and place in the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 175°C and bake for 40 minutes, then remove the foil and bake until golden brown, about 20 more minutes.
