Top with remaining potatoes, overlapping slightly; sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Spread with remaining creme fraiche; sprinkle with remaining cheese.

3. Still Hungry?
Just four ingredients add up to a rich and delicious side dish. Once the potatoes are sliced, the gratin comes together quickly and then bakes unattended for about an hour and 15 minutes.
Notes:
*Available at some supermarkets. If unavailable, heat 1 1/2 cups whipping cream to lukewarm (85 degrees F). Remove from heat and mix in 3 tablespoons buttermilk. Cover and let stand in warm draft-free area until slightly thickened, 24 to 48 hours, depending on temperature of room. Chill until ready to use.
