Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 4 medium carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly butter a medium glass casserole dish.
  2. Arrange half of the sliced potatoes evenly in the dish.
  3. Add half of the sliced carrots over the potatoes.
  4. Drizzle with half of the melted butter.
  5. Repeat the layers with the remaining potatoes and carrots, then pour the rest of the melted butter on top.
Baking
  1. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
  2. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the top is golden and lightly browned.
  3. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, season layers with salt, pepper, or garlic powder. You can use different types of potatoes or add other sliced vegetables for variety. Ensure slices are thin for even cooking. To store leftovers, cool completely, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for a month. Reheat properly before serving.
