Preparing the potatoes: Peel and cut the russet potatoes into thin slices. Make sure to get even slices for even cooking.

Preparation of the creamy mixture: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, minced garlic, butter, dried thyme, salt and black pepper. Heat until the butter melts and everything is well combined.
