6Do the same with the potato slices.Auvergne gratin : etape 25
7Then add the cabbage strips.

You're done with the milk, so I suggest you remove and discard the garlic, bay leaf and thyme, then set it aside, or freeze it, for another savoury recipe (béchamel sauce in particular).

Remarks

To cook vegetables in milk, each time you finish cooking a vegetable, pour the contents of the saucepan (milk + vegetables) into a colander placed on a salad bowl, then pour the milk back into the saucepan for the next vegetable. It's quicker and easier than removing the vegetables with a skimmer.
As with all gratins, the quantities given are a guide only, so don't hesitate to adapt them to your own taste, or to what you have on hand.
For a more golden gratin top, sprinkle with an additional 80g of grated cheese, ideally Cantal, before putting in the oven.
