For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the sauce. If you don't have fresh herbs, dried herbs can be substituted. Use about 1 teaspoon of each dried herb. To achieve a crispier top, broil the gratin for the last few minutes of baking, keeping a close watch to prevent burning.

Follow The Directions
01
StepSauté the Aromatics: In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt vegan margarine. Add chopped leeks, crushed garlic, 2 teaspoons of oregano, 2 teaspoons of rosemary, salt, and pepper. Cook until the leeks are softened and fragrant, about 7-8 minutes.
02
StepCreate the Creamy Base: Add the thinly sliced Yukon gold potatoes, coconut milk, almond milk, and flour to the saucepan. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cover the saucepan and simmer until the potatoes are almost cooked through, approximately 10-15 minutes. If the mixture starts to stick, add more almond milk as needed to maintain a creamy consistency.
03
StepPrepare for Baking: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a casserole dish to prevent sticking.
04
StepAssemble and Bake: Spoon the potato and leek mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the shredded vegan cheese over the top, ensuring a generous layer for a golden-brown crust. Garnish with the remaining oregano and rosemary for added flavor and visual appeal.
05
StepBake to Perfection: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake until the potatoes are fully cooked, tender, and the top is beautifully golden brown, about 20-30 minutes.
